Ran a 5.62 @ 125.71 to the 1/8 th and a 8.756 @ only 152.50 (lifted at 1000 feet to stay under 150 because of no parachute). Oopps, didnt scrub off enough speed, hopefully they wont toss me from the track.

I have already gone 149.65 mph on just motor, so you can see i totally got out of it but still improved by .41.

My first 8 second pass. Time to get a chute i guess.

Then I ran a 5.564 @ 126.74 mph to the 1.8th, lifted and braked at the 1000 foot and still ran an 8.93 @ 126 LOL.

Congrats!! Yep chute time, they will defiantly get on you about a chute at those speeds. If you ever get that thing to hook, with 60 in the 1.20's, you will scare yourself.

Damn! Congrats man, one hell of a car you have there.

I quick looked at your build, but didn't see it. What size stall are you running? And what rpm are you launching at off the trans brake?

Going back up to the line now.

Step 1---hopefully i am not tossed.
Step 2---lets see how the run goes. If i can gèt into the 1.28 60 foots like 3 weeks ago, it should be an easy 5.50 to the 1/8 th.

Trouble? Really, they won't give you a warning, then promise to take the bottle out.

Nice hit. 8.60s easy.

I must have been gone a while because I thought you were still N/A! The car is flat moving out, and I can't wait for a full run...

LOL, Paul thats awesome man. Are you spraying the full hit now?

That depends on who you talk to. I like the 200 shot right off of the trans brake. But if you talk to ken3030 he thinks i am a pussy for not doing 400 (lol). Yeah i want my motor to survive a couple seasons.
