Even though my car is pretty much together (and just passed state inspection...YAY!) I will likely pass. Trying to conserve funds a bit. Shame, because the weather should be great for the turbo cars.
Let us know how it goes...
Congrats on the times Tony, that's haulin.
Remember: If it rains Tuesday, then they should run Wednesday instead. Maybe I'd even go.
Nice numbers. Would be nice to see that car on the dyno at our session on the 25th. Or at the Chicagoland session.
Great weather and very busy track.
1st pass 9.89@139.2 running rich
2nd pass took fuel out 9.72@139.8
3rd pass left everything alone 9.70@139.7
All runs @ 25lbs of boost:biggrin: Too early to turn it up.
Very happy with the car leaving and driving straight down the track on a drag radial. No vibration anymore and very smooth runs. All 60 fts 1.45-1.51 not bad.
I am ready for a long racing season ahead I hope. I may go again Tuesday night if its dry??
'Chutes aren't mandatory, (at NHRA tracks), until 150 mph...but he's slowly gettin' there!
Tony, change the speed in your sig to that 139.8x pass!
He was flyin' and so were many others; the air was actually -385 at one point!

Awesome runs Tony. 9.70 on the first outing WOW. I would venture to say you will see a 9.50 this year, congrats.
Did anyone at the track say anything about not having a chute?

You sure about that one, Tony? Back in '05 they amended the rule to 9.99 OR 150 mph but I've yet to see a track which enforces the 9.99 part of the rule.
Nice times man!!
What it do in the 1/8th?
