I spun a little I think. I am running BFG drag radials. They are not broken in yet though.

572WHP 427FTQ Pump+Methanol 32 psi. I was only running 21psi. That would explain the low trap.

Good luck JRod! Let us know what happens.

That's where my damn 1st gear comes into play. I did properly fix the boost issue and was placed 2nd in the brackets for AWD class. I line up with newly found power and blew out of 1st not once but 3 times!! I finally got back on it almost half way down the track and trapped 122MHP, from 2nd gear I hate my first gear and hopefully, if I can ever get a hold of him, have Jon at TRE fix it.

If I can keep the gear I have in it than there is no doubt. I still think it is a short shifter issue.

You definitely need to get that first gear syncro fixed. Good times Nick.

It would have been nice to see you go 10's.

Still had issues with my first gear so I had PLENTY sloppy passes however, I did set a new personal record. I had NO access to VP Import so I would have loved to know what the time would have been. I was running pump and meth @ 21 psi! I was fooling with my boost controller and I thought I had turned it up and I actually turned it down. I should be running 32psi! I even missed second once but finally got it in and she took off! For the non believers I have the data log. The run is below:

60' - 1.623
330 - 4.501
1/8 - 7.168
MPH - 95.19
1000 - 9.350
1/4 - 11.176
MPH - 124.01

Thanks to Buschur for building and tuning this beast. Thanks to Doug from Topspeed for dialing in my two step and support at the track. Very excited to get some race gas in her and turn up the juice!
It was Import SHOWDOWN LOL! Silly Nick Congrats on that awsome time!
