Damn I wish I could pull a 60 like that.. I guess it ain't going to happen until I buy some slicks.. I went a new best this week also 7.33 at 100.05mph on a 1.8 60' I think there is some magic in the air because everyone is doing really well..
magic = nice cool air.. hehe
magic = nice cool air.. hehe

Good runnin my man.
The news saturday from you, shortly after my mishap, was refreshing to hear. Then right after that dad got his first 9sec pass. Made my day much better.
Your close. Put those slicks up to 15psi, cold, and you will get a 1.4X 60' time.
And if you wanna get real tricky, do the other little trick I told you about in the staging lane and you will get another .1sec off the slip. 
Nothing like good old n/a power layin down some great ETs. Good job again.
Can't hardly wait for the first day next season! Told a guy at work today that if my motor is real bad, I might just take off this upcoming season - he replied, perhaps if you were cripled in a wreck saturday I might believe you, but somehow I know the thing will be running at the first available track day next year regardless of what you say now. I suppose he is right.
