Finally made it into the 9's

[TRIXTSI]

Hey all just thought i'd share my latest adventure to the track.

I recently switched over from a 35R (non-hta .63) to the new air-cooled PTE6262 w/ the ceramic bearing center section.

Previously the best the car ran was 10.08 @ 142.9

We thrashed to get the car ready for last Sat TNT at Sacramento Raceway before the cold/wet of winter sets in here in CA.

Sean Burgess was on the dyno tuning it at 7am that Sat and we made it just in time to make some passes.

Although the track was extremely cold and since there were not a lot of big tire cars laying down heat /rubber it was tough to hook especially in the top of 1st.

So even w/ a mediocre launch it still ran this:

Here's another angle:

I tried to back it up but the track just wasn't there to launch the car harder but it did back up the mph 2 other times.

Nice to also see we picked up a solid 3-4 mph in the 1/8th

So it was a great 2009 and we accomplished all our goals......what a great way to end the year knowing that the car can def knock off a few tenths in the launch.

2010 looks to be very promising

As I always say...this car is my idol EVO and the driving was stellar! Again, this car sounds amazing the whole way through...shifts are damn quick!

Congrats on smashing through that 10.0 wall!

Bummer no 60' time on the slip though?
