This was in the first round. 5.43@127 with a 1.26 60'. Might have 60-footed on the back tires. Not sure.

Ended up going to the finals but had a transbrake malfunction that let me push through the lights. I couldn't make it repeat the problem afterwards.

Congrat's on the new personal best Craig! You've got the Death Nova flying!

Bummer on the trans brake deal, got any ideas what caused that?

Thanks John. No idea what happened with the transbrake. All is fine now and I can't get it to repeat the problem.

Its due for one now. Its got over 100 runs on it since it was last freshened. I meant to get it up to Bradco over the winter and didn't get it done. I will before the next race.
