144 is haulin some tail at sea level let alone at that DA!

Fact that your doing it banging gears too..something too cool about that

Need to get you to a track one day with some real air and see what that beast can do!

Your car comes on strong on the last half, my bike does 146 with me on it and I'm running 117 in the 1/8th. I bet your car would be a hwy monster.

That is bad assed. In today's paddle shifted, E-nannied, launch controlled, "do everything for you" cars, rowing your own in a car like this, to those numbers is totally awesome. The fact that Jim is doing it w/a ~20% power and torque handicap due to D/A, is even more awesome.

Great times.

Those were the very first runs on that engine. The car/engine/gearing is set up for NOS. Those 3 runs are the only runs down the track this year.

Great run, Jim! Now, come down to sea level, make your first run in the 9s no problem and get booted off the track

That thing is flying on the top end. What heads do you have? And forgive me but are you spraying it...I looked quickly and did not see anything.

My car is legal to 10.00. So it's getting close to getting booted up here... let alone at sealevel.

It has AFR 245's and a 200 shot of nitrous.
