Me too, if it hooks and they go all out I don't see dipping into the 7s being an issue

That 8.5 was fuel only. They forgot to turn on the bottle.

The team rented the track for Monday morning 9-1 so we will keep trying!!

Cool.


I'm not hating at all. But I noticed they aren't really launching right. Seems like they are rolling out on the brake or something. That might be worth some time on the e/t's. And lots of people have been pointing out they are short shifting it. All of that, plus the nitrous should put them well into the 7’s.

Well I'm sure it's not easy launching with that Liberty trans.

Little motor and big tire.. Kinda sounds like it bogs before takes off. Very impressive though for that motor and amount of time they had to build it and get over to u.s. definitely impressive

We didnt make the 7s but we did hit 170 MPH on a hurt motor so its all there for the 7s.

they were able to get the suspension dialed in and stop the rear from dropping off the line.

Its a manual transmission so rolling out on the launch is happening. The metal plate the clutch was grabbing was starting to warp so it was staying a little engaged.

They are very excited about getting the car ready for next year!!!

I'm glad the team was able to turn some of your opinions around about international drag racing.
