How was the exhaust throwing off the ET?

Did you watch the vids? Clearly he didn't run a 7.5 so it was off for some reason.

I was hoping to see your car at MIR next weekend man! None the less, that car looks scary on that first vid! Yikes :)
 
haha 7.5! I bet you were scratching your head when you got that timeslip. Car looks amazing man! Was that your highest mph?

Not after i saw the .30 sixty foot ROFL . 160.8 was the best mph
 
Nice runs. Can't wait to see what it does next year. Hopefully you didn't hurt the motor too bad.

Love watching this car run down the track.:hellyeah:
 
Carrying the tire with a car that heavy, ####ing woah like joey woah.

Yeah, the first picture is awesome.:hellyeah::D Front end off the ground and the back tires squatting and biting the track.:thumb:
Can't wait to see more out of you next year.:thumb:

Love watching this car run down the track.:hellyeah:

Yeah me too.... It's mesmerizing.
 
Wow, I've only seen a few pull the front wheels off the ground. I like the second pic where you're crossed up just a bit as it appears the rear is sliding to the left. Too bad about the smoke causing the beam to stay on. Would have been nice to know how it ran. 7.5 would have been great! Anyway, good stuff:thumb:
 
Amazing runs! Your car is all over the track on the first video and I love the camera guys "WHOA!" after the second run. Godspeed on the rebuild and good luck next season!!!!!
 
I remember seeing your end of season video from last year, and now this end of season video... uhhhh this year flew by!
 
My favorite DSM by far,i still remember ''White Gold'' coming to chicago a couple years back,you guys have sick DSM's.Get to work for next year,re-set the record.
