New best for Death Nova
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.

Re: New best for Death Nova
Nice job craig, that thing is cooking. I bet that thing will go a 30, just add more spray!
I am not really sure what the question is, but I am pretty sure the answer is Big Block.
