Cool launch pics!!
Found these from the race this past weekend. Thanks to Andy at modifiedstreet.com for the pics. He has a whole gallery here if you want to look.

Huntsville pictures from Huntsville, November 4-6, 2007

I fought ignition trouble all weekend. Apparantly I have a bad coil or something as it got worse so I have some testing to do. You can see I had no issue the first couple hundred feet but the car would loose a lot of power before half track. Car never went faster than 5.50 at 113 lifting at half track

The mustang in the other lane belongs to a friend and is the car I drove in the spring race while my car was down.

Here's a video of that race. The car is a very consistent 5.20 car at 138 when you can keep the nose down.

Good thing you let up... Looked like that nose was going to come up quick!
