Ran a new best last nite
Well after about a year and a half of electrical problems and everything else you could imagine we finally got it down the track last nite. First pass right out of the trailer was a 5.40@139. Next pass out played with the progressive a little and wow 5.35@140. I couldn't believe it after all we been through with this thing. Now we can tune on it and hopefully go a little faster. Hopefully we can get it running teens so we can got to 0rtc for x275 in october.

I missed that weight earlier, that's probably what's hurting the ET. Need to put her on a diet...silvanova wrote:Thanks John. I need to get this pig lighter this winter (3522).

There's a wild street race at Beech Bend on Nov. 6th. You'd run pretty well I think.
