Well, it was my first time driving at the track!!! Had a blast!!!!

It's late so I'll make it short...

Before the Zex the car ran 14.922 with Lidio driving... Now I weigh probably at least 120 to 140 pounds MORE than him... and of course he's a much better driver... So... all that being said... here is my best run...

60' = 2.052
1/8 = 9.002
1/8 MPH = 78.53
1/4 = 14.004
1/4 MPH = 99.70

So not quite in the 13's... but dang the car ran good... I made about 6 passes... Definitely had a lot of fun....

Looking forward to going back....

Nice job scrming! My NOS isn't working right so I didn't try it. I posted my timeslips in another thread.

LOL! Nope... I won't be happy until it's on a timeslip!!!

The car was running good... I think we can tweek it a little bit more even with just the 75HP jets... We'll see what next Saturday will bring on the dyno...

Oh... The 14.004 was just as I was getting the hang of it... and then the track went south.. it cooled off and EVERYONE was spinning! LOL! On one run I must have spun half way down the track!!! LOL!


Jimp, what's going on with your Zex? Anything serious? (thanks for the compliment!)

Jenn, thank you too!

Yeah, I'm still grinning... The first run was NERVE RACKING... but after that ....
