Deeper in the 9's for Paul!
 
Just got off the phone with Paul. They are up in Seattle running again tonight. 9.7@144.5 with a 1.4x 60ft time. He is getting it done and they are going to run more passes as the air is getting better.

Big congrats to Paul, he has really made some big improvements in driving that thing!

Good driving, very nice launches.

Paul Nelson Jun 8, 2007 09:41 PM

This comment is just a tease nothing more. :)

Very nice work Paul.

Congrats, Paul, those are some killer numbers! {thumbup} Good luck w/ that 3rd gear on your next run, would be cool to see if you could improve, but even if you can't those are great times...

I also just wanted to give John Reed a BIG :thumbup: for his awesome tuning! I'm not a real hardcore dragracer like Paul, I just daily drive my Evo and enjoy taking it out on fun roads, track days, etc., but I recently got a 50-trim (yeah yeah I know, it's small... :spin:)and so far we've just tuned it on pump gas, and the car feels great! I'm looking forward to getting it tuned using my meth kit that RRev put together! :D

Alright we did awesome tonight. Wanted to thank English Racing for everything. The awesome tune and car they put together. Extreme Turbo Systems for the Wonderfull Turbo and Intercooler that held up great from my lead foot:lol:
RREV for the help with getting are tune dialed in:cool:

I will get pics,video,and time slips in the morning{thumbup}

Very nice!!

While we were in the stands, Paul does his burnout, and some Harley guys in the bleachers said something to the effect "I really like that there turbo sound". Paul rips off his first 9 sec pass of the night and the entire bleachers erupts into hysterical cheers. Pretty impressive for the V8 crowd.

The car is really getting sorted out. Paul is still working on his launch, so I wouldnt be suprised if hes not cutting some 1.3x 60' here soon.

Congrats again Paul! Oh, and thanks for telling me all those WONDERFUL stories about the gay bars you frequent.
