    Default New personal best: 14.063 @ 98.13

    Well I wanna say that I had a really great time out at the Tulsa dragway today and enjoyed meeting Ken (Joeskanner) and a couple other guys.

    So I ran ET Streets and burned the hell out of them every run. Probably did 10 or so passes throughout the day. This thing HOOKED!! For the most part, it launched flawlessly. 60' times are still a little on the high side but the top end makes up for it.

    This is my new personal best


    Wanted to highlight these two reaction times… Cut a .005, which was my best reaction time to date!


    And I was .001 off from a perfect light!


    And this was my fastest trap speed… 98.29


    Even though I didn't break that 13 second wall down, I'm very optimistic about next season. With some better tires, I'll definitely cut a 13

    So close to 13! It's far from dead-hooking though with those 60ft times.

    What did you do to drop 1/2 second off your times from Sept until now? Weather and slicks?

    Shocks, new spark plugs, slicks, little bit of weight reduction and good weather. DA was around 100-150 when I ran the 14.0. Previous best was a 14.56

    Good seeing you guys out there. I was going to come back over to bs w/ you about your 60's after I was eliminated out in the 3rd round, but I think you already took off.. Your truck runs really well. I'm impressed.
