New setup, New best! *vid added*

I was ITCHING to race after driving the car around for a bit the last week or so, so we took it up to muncie tonight. I trailered the car up, and my friend Ryan drove his 35r powered evo up.

First pass off the trailer, I didn't really know what to expect, and I bogged the hell out of it. The car came alive and I shifted it quick but full lifts on every gear. A feel this thing out, kinda pass.

It ran

60'-----1.930
330'----4.746
1/8-----6.884
mph----115.35
1000----8.709
1/4------10.220
mph-----150.65

I was pretty freaking stoked after this pass went back up to the lanes after a peice of square pizza from the consession stand

I got a little happy on the 2step and blew the tires off pretty bad, smacked the limiter quite a bit before I shifted to second, as I got back on the throttle the car was really loud, I short shifted 3rd for some reason, then decided to run it out. That killed me as it hurt the 1/8 for sure. I guess on the limiter it blew the rear section of the exhaust off, the muffler and a small peice of pipe.

60'-------1.721
330'------4.528
1/8-------6.702
mph------112.28
1000------8.540
1/4--------10.066
mph------149.75

The next pass I blew the tires off, off the line, and missed 2nd gear. The car blew the tires off when boost hit in 2nd, the track was going away, still went 11.0 @ 145 missing 2nd

Ryan broke the tob clip on his car on his pass, so I stopped racing, let him use the trailer to get home and drove my muffler less car home!

I really wanted a 9, but I am happy with how she ran.

All runs where on 41.xx peak boost setting to 39.xx thur the gear. With the small air filter ON the turbo. Still lots of power left for sure. Last time I weighed the car it was 3340 in "race" trim. I raced it tonight just like I drive it on the street.

I will post vids and pics when I get them.

Here is the first vid I have got. He started a little late, but you can see how soft I left the first pass.
