We made a few more passes tonight. Trying to work on consistency with current setup (only to change it all again soon LOL). We set a new personal best ET and MPH with a 9.82 @ 142.87mph.

Adam H has now made all passes required for his NHRA license, just got to send in the paperwork, Congrats Bro, you are doing great!

The time slips will be scanned and posted tomm, but for now here is what it looks like. Also FWIW, the 60' in GA a few weeks back was 1.4x, tonight we only got 1.5's, so if we can get that back down, can probably bring that ET down a tad.

RT .232
60' 1.505
330' 4.209
1/8 6.382
mph 113.17
1000' 8.250
1/4 9.827
mph 142.87

Here are the videos.

Looks good. Was he launching differently each pass, to cause such a variation in 60' times? Are you spinning on the launch? Once you get those 60' times down, you should be well into the mid-low 9's!

Thank Michael. He is still trying to get use to everything. As you are aware of, it takes some time to get consistent and remember everything. We have been adjusting tire pressure a bit because of some wheel spin. Still a work in progress.

If you aren't already doing it, some decent quality, close-up video of the launch can really help in getting the set-up working.

LOL, I know too well about trying to remember everything for a pass!
 
Dayum, that's hauling the mail! That thing looks like it would even smog in Commifornia! Keep up the good work!
