Evodan new personal best 10.37 @ 137 MPH

ok. well what do i say now. i dont know. here is how the day went.

the track was dead. no one was there tonight. maybe 15 cars running. i get checked in and i get in line. there was no line so i staged. 1st pass ''60 foot'' i hit 1.599 again. tire pressure is whatever it was. last week i put it back to 34psi and i didnt even test it today. i get my slip and literally hot lapped it. got the slip and went right back up. 45 seconds round trip. i tried to shift faster from 1/2 and i did. but my 2nd pass i had more wheel spin and ended up with a 1.68 60 foot again. the only thing i did different this time VS my 10.43 was shift 1/2 faster and i shifted at a higher rpm in all the gears. normally i shifted at around 8kRPM this time i did 8300/8400RPM. very damn happy with the results.

here is the run down of the pass

60 - 1.685
330 - 4.510
1/8 - 6.785
MPH - 108.47
1000 - 8.735
1/4 - 10.376
mph - 137.82


here is the video. it was my girl recording so excuse the ''amateur'' job. but its un edited and i love it.

Awesome job. What boost are you running right now or how much power is car currently making?

I'd be satisfied with a 1.68 lol.

Even though she did an "amateur" job at recording, she got some hilarious footage. that's funny that she recorded you talking to them, convincing them to let you run again after being banned. LOL

Congrats Dan. You deserve the accomplishments and some spotlight

Over the last few years you have become a good friend. I remember getting the call when the stock motor let go I even got the call when the stock trans took a dive. Man I hate those calls....they are almost like getting a call that someone has died...what do you say??? nothing really fixes it.

Yet you have continued on and now you are starting to realize your goals. A big for not throwing in the towel even when you probably felt like doing. It's funny how we ALL think about it sometimes. It's the passion and love for the sport and the industry that keeps us going.

I'm glad to hear that a cage will be installed. That thing is dangerously fast. Imagine how it's going to run on race gas?
