Very interesting video. YEAH...I'll have to watch it tomorrow again when the demerol wears off...but,

It appeared to have the street tires on, and it sounded like it woundup first gear litterally immediately. After that, it was gone. Gone like a bat out of hell!!!

Are there any shots from the side? And what was the 60 ft. time on that run?

Oh, BTW...Nice, very nice! :up:

Man....awesome...simply awesome.

I cannot wait to see the full potential of this beast.

There is no doubt in my mind that this machine....if allowed...will be in the running for the "Big Dog" at SSHS5... :D And there will be one....just a guess!

The street tires for this machine are widened rims and Nitto's!

It was gone like a boy out of hell!

To answer some of the questions....

Those were "street" tires: I was running the Nitto's on the widened rims.

It was an 1/8 mile track. The time was 8.08. The trap speed was 91mph. This time would translate to low 12's, which is obviously not as fast as I would like to see. But, we are at the beginning of the curve with respect to tuning the motor and the tranny. Plus, I believe that once we put the slicks on him, he will hook much better.

I booked my flights for a 24 hour trip down to ATL again next weekend. We will do more sorting out and tuning and I will of course report back then.

Gosh, getting the car set up is the hardest part!

Oh and thanks for all the compliments!!

I definitely heard 8.08 @ 91 MPH .... not sure of the speed; but the time was pretty clear. Surely, there's a timeslip on this one. :2thumbs:

Mark (and others): I will be heading back down to the ATL this weekend for a quick trip. I will leave late Saturday night after work and come back late Sunday night after the track.

While I am down in the ATL, the Boy will be back at the track with my good friends Shankin, Todd, and others. We will run the car again and may even have the slicks on him!!

I will post up more times and videos after my trip. Wish me luck!!

Last guy I trailered tonight was at Dallas and saw S***** P****** run. He was afraid that I had brought the same. He was totally awestruck.
