Thanks for all the compliments guys...
I must admit-- You are a hell of a "jockey"..

Glad to leave the past in the past and shake my pom-poms for your 8 sec pass.

Thank you and me too. The past is the past. Lets just have fun and go FAST. I'm hoping to bust out an 8 sec pass soon...

Thanks guys...

Those were some clean *** passes...Congrads on the new numbers. 8s are definitely in the near future for you.

What were the 60' fts like? I just looked at some of your old videos. The car looks like it does not launch as hard on the new setup. OR my eyes may be messing with me.

Your eyes aren't deceiving you. I'm holding the car back. With so much more power I just wanted to get through the gears and get comfortable. So to make sure I didnt explode the TC on the first pass I am slipping the clutch a little more than usual. 60's weren't bad though. They were all 1.4's(1.43, 1.45, and 1.49-not in that order)... I just make it look nice and smooth LOL...
I have now had time to review everything including dyno sheets and have made a mental note of where my shift points will be. If the trans will let and the clutch holds out a few more passes it will go 8's no problem. Its a balancing act more then ever now But the car is launching straigh and is making the power to do it... Weather is a major factor right now down in Florida. I pulled the weather report and field elevaton was 1,804 FT. It was 82* and 75% humidity on the night of the runs which is what really impresses me about the car On a good cool night with the right pass it could really knock out an amzing pass for 800 whp...

Fantastic driving...that 1-2 was smooth as hell. Is the car on E85 now or on VP race fuel? Sorry if I missed it before. Thanks.

Thanks. means alot people enjoy the car as much as I do. It really has been good to me... It just keeps making pass after pass. A true testament to the people involved.

The car is on E85 and the 4 1600's are maxed right now. I've talked with Driven Innovation's about an 8 injector set up, but I just want to get more seat time before more down time
