Before I begin, I want to thank JJ@WMS for setting the bar which was upheld for over 1 year. It took a lot of work and trial to best it which is a true testament for his achievement. Second I want to thank kdanner for the time spent tuning the car and working to get it dialed in. Finally, my friends and family for their support. This wouldn't have been possible without them.
Onto today....we decided to give a day trip to the track a shot since we weren't having much luck with track conditions running in the evenings at our home track. We knew going into it that DA wasn't going to be great but I had a suspicion that the track conditions would be much better and they were. I made 6 passes, all in the 10 second range. Top MPH of the day was 126.05 and best ET was 10.87. No changes have been made to the car since NMRA Houston back in November. DA for the best ET pass was around 1,300' above SL. Not what I had wanted but it was good enough. 60' times for the day ranged from 1.54 to 1.57. I couldn't be happier with the car's consistency. That said I believe there is more in the car without changing or doing anything power related.
...the good stuff....

On a side note, I had the opportunity to drive a couple of 2013's and enjoyed every minute of it. We were able to get both into the 11's today which was a large step in the right direction. I don't want to spoil the fun for the owners so will leave it to them to post up if desired.
