No decent numbers to report from today. We're going to probably be on a hiatus as my dad is going on vacation for a few weeks and I don't think we'll have the chance to get it back out before he leaves. I'm hoping we're onto something to make the car faster even at these low boost settings next time out, although we don't plan on keeping the boost low for long.

In lieu of decent numbers to report from today, I'll offer another perspective on the 7.77 pass:

This camera was borrowed from my brother in-law for this pass. I think we're going to have to buy one, the footage was sweet!

WOW . Even though it only happend because of the wind and force from going so fast it's cool how the camera pans up to see the clocks

We took the car back out on Sunday and managed a new best in some 90 degree heat.

7.610 at 171.77 MPH. 1.096 60' time leaving at 16 PSI.

The video footage of the run isn't all that great so I'm not sure if/when I'll get a video up.

16 PSI off the line, but how much total? That's crazy, can't wait to see what this thing can really do!! Great work guys!

For now. I swear you guys are my heros, keep up the good work. Turn the boost up to 60+, work out those bugs, and enjoy your...oh yeah..you told me not to mention that magic number. But, you know the number I'm talking about.

Very impressive car best of luck with it, I still can’t believe how fast these motors are with the stock block and head castings.

Congrats on the new #'s!

By the way what was that video cam used when it tilted upwards?

 

[Got Grip]

Thanks guys.

The on-board camera was a Go-pro camera, they are fairly popular for racers.

We might try to make some more runs this weekend.
