Last race of the season and things finally clicked today. Car went best of 5.806@120.22 and 9.084@148.95. I also went to 1/4 finals today. Still couldn't find the tree like I wanted but much better then I've done the rest of the year. Hmmmm Now what to do to see if I can pick up .08 over the winter and put this beast in the 8's.

No passenger seat wipers etc.  Just need to get car to 60ft and I'm there.  I think my short times should be in the 1.20's with the ET I'm running.  Car doesn't feel like it is spinning.  Tried calling Lenny but he is taking a break and won't be in till the 17th.  Just not sure why it won't 60. I may be bring rpms up to much and loading the converter. Didn't want to change up yesterday cause I was going rounds finally.
