    Another Test and Tune Day

     



    8.46 @ 163


    After a rather scary launch I had to lift as I was heading in the wrong direction. The left hand turn has to do with a chassis adjustment and is being delt with.

    Second Pass

    Sorry for not explaining that particular video clip a little better. I was running in Top Eliminator and had to put a dial-in on the board. That was actually the number I was shooting for, but due to lifting when I did, I only ran a 11.91. We are going to do it all over again this Saturday night. All I have to do is get into the 7's and I'll be one happy camper.

    Here's more to stand that hair up a bit. We just got back from a trip to Eddyville, Iowa for the First Annual Draglist.com Nationals. The track is 1/8th mile and it was more of an exhibition than anything. I was up against a Nitro Injected SBF powered FED from Kansas. We traveled a mere 1400 Miles to his 400 miles to get there. We had a GREAT time, and are looking forward to next year.

    That particular pass was with 2 stages of nitrous.Still getting this thing dialed in. Our next race is on October 1st, and we should have the combination we have been looking for at that time. We'll see. Without the spray, it runs in the low 9 second area, kind of boring.
