Dan, congrats you deserve it. You had a plan and stuck with it. Glad to see the hard work and time payoff. Just wish I stayed to see the pass.

thanks a lot. it is nothing compared to what other's do including your self but its great to accomplish what is set on the table. something i honestly didn't think i would have got my last run. i staged hoping to at least get a 10.0XX for a personal best. it was past 5PM and the track closes at 5. i heard an announcement for last call for TNT and i rushed over. i think i was like 4th to last car who made it in.

Congrats Dan. What does your car weigh? I know it's pretty light, I'm just surprised it doesn't ET better! Either way, congrats on 9s

I was shooting for them also but had some issues and had to run it in limp mode, only pass was a 10.1@139

Maybe I missed it but I thought I only saw 2 yellow Evos there. One with a custom yellow paint job and another with stickers on the side. I think his name was Nick. Any videos of the runs?

i was dead on with my math over the winter. i put the car on the scale. no driver 2780. i am 195

i dont think it ET'S well because its my driving. every shift the car is falling off boost. i did not NLTS any of the 10 second or 9 second runs. the car has gone 151. looking at the slips the car with a decent driver and 60 foot i am sure will reach 9.5s. it needs to be driven.

Yes, I agree that it will go 9.5's all day for sure once you get the car to loose little boost between shifts i prefer lift shifting as I can do it just about as fast and don't have to worry about possibly damaging something.
