Supra was spraying downtrack to make up for the slippery prep in the 330. That was a record trap for that car actaully. It was running a smaller turbo and gas vs an 80mm and meth when it ran a low 8, so its a little more reliable and faster. Thats the way to do it right? We have a few tricks still left, a few things we are gonna change before the shootout and the rest of the season.
Patrick,
All the BOTI stuff is cancelled which is a shame since thats what this car had originally been built for. The NHRA SC stuff is basically the same rules so we'll keep it more less as is for the time being. Then comes the big decision of do we recage it fro sub 8.50s are run it where it is and have fun. First things first of course and we need to get faster than the current 8.84. That will happen no doubt.
Jeff was sleeping believe it or not, he normally cuts under .100 with 1.31-1.33s...still we'll take it
Besides its WAY better than having me in the car. I sleep all the time.

We will be having to make the trip down to SoCal for the IDRC and BOTI events later this summer but i'd like to run the car on a full slick to shoot for some personal bests and then back to DOT's for racing these events in SoCal.....
Edit: I'd be plenty happy w/ those r/t's but my car is no where near as consistant as Jeff's.........props once again!

I really need to jump in here and thank the many people that support all my efforts. Team English Racing, ETS, Spark Tech, FIC, Kiggly,and my two newest members Dog Box Racing and Street Tuned Motorsports. With out all of us combined in the effort I would not be where I am today. Thanks.
I think Im starting to have fun again. Jeff

Damn, I really wish I was there. I forgot the ER crew was going to be so close! The car is consistent, but more importantly, so is Jeff!
You guys need to seriously figure out a way to give rides in a car like this (albeit slower with the added weight). I'd pay for a trip!
Congrats!

Craig, the car wouldnt run without SparkTech...thanks a ton 
.
This is the second car I have had the privilege to be a crew chief on. This is the first one I have truly enjoyed. The pit crew and I (Little Joe deserves props) havent had any problems keeping it ready between rounds. Its so slow in the Pits, Jeff is working on the car
Patrick, no worries on the revisions...those are last years though.
