Congrats Tad that was an awesome run,nice clean and straight!!!! Way to go!!!

Thanks, brother. There's more in it on just motor with some more shift point adjustments and a bit more timing.

The run felt good . . . and it felt FAST . . lol. That 1.34 60 foot about knocked my Copenhagen outta my lip. :comando:

Once I get it as dialed in as possible on motor, I'll install the 300 shot. Then things will get interesting.

Congratulations, that's awesome. :)

Thanks, Mel. You shoulda been there!!

First run of 9.95, I knew it was a 9 second pass. Second pass, 9.81, I actually said out loud, when I crossed the stripe, "Well . . . that was faster."

Thanks, Matt. It's good to finally have the license thing over with. And, I can tell you that I now understand why the NHRA requires one . . . it's a little dicey up there . . lol.

Here's a vid of the first pass (9.95). Not as fast, but the burnout is worth it . . lol.
