New video from today

Second time trial run. 1.371 60' time. 9.473@142.33. Nice wheels up launch.

First round eliminations. Shortened the front end limiters and kept the front end down. 1.350 60'. I had a .008 reaction time to my opponents perfect light. There was a strong head wind and we both ran much slower than our dial. I was .110 off my dial, he was .069 off his dial and crossed the finish 10' in front of me. He would have had to have a .042 light or worse for me to win.

Bracket racing in the 1/4 would be tuff. You would enjoy it down south. We have alot of pro tree index racing. 6.00 and 7.00. Your car should run 6.00 easily here.
