MAPerformance FDSM goes 8.81 at Englishtown Showdown 8/16/09

We were the quickest pass of the day (with the exception of a rail car) even with all that stiff competition and having to get out of it around the 1000' mark The track was in less than favorable condition as can be seen by our first few runs. Did I mention we drove this car to and from Turbotrix the day before?

60' ~ 1.34
1/8 ~ 5.60 @ 126
1/4 ~ 8.81 @ 138

I wish i would have gotten to see the car up close in the pits. It has so much potential. With more testing and tuning i'm really curious what it will run.

Awesome videos! You don't happen to have any video of the 9.89 pass do you? It got scary sideways and the whole crowd collectively gasped lol, this is all I have found so far...
