Hopefully Danny will get some extra motivation and bump us down.
Rob, stop the madness!!!! That is absolutely incredible. Congrats to you and AMR. I can't take anything away from you guys. Great work! Am I going to have to come to NJ to re-establish the N/A record? LOL. I should have my car back to the track in Jan '09. We will see what happens then.

Rob, just did a search. It looks like Chuck Wolfe ran a best of 9.93x.
If x=0 then he gets the top spot and I'll have to put the drag pack back on this year. lol

Congrats on the pass, crazy mph and et for 347 cubes.

What kind of tires are you using, exactly?
I'm just curious because I'd like to hit the track next year, and hope to get my car in the mid to upper 10's, although our setups are totally different(and you have a ton of skill!!)

Also, when are you planning to run again?
I have some free time, and would love to see you run.
