4.10s are fine since the rev limiter is bumped. Don't worry about being slightly out of your powerband. 4.10s will more than make up for it as we previously discussed.

He will run in that range for sure...I just don't think he'll be doing it tomorrow night.
It will be a total victory if Pete can just get into the 11.9s in this air (and he could/should).

And based on the weather stats I might have to realign my predictions LOL.
If Pete gets only two passes in he will have at least one 11.9 (possibly a high 11.8) at over 116+.
If he gets three or four passes and his last one comes after 10pm he could actually go an 11.7999 at roughly 117mph tonight.
My main concerns are the tires and more importantly the clutch but I have faith in him to get it done regardless.

Yeah looks to be a pretty decent air day by mid-August standards. The other problem is, if tonight is anything like last Friday, Pete will be lucky to get 3 runs in...and that's assuming no one drops anything on the track.

Hum, that is not encouraging. I was considering making the trip down.

It is almost scary how good you guys are at this game

2nd run 11.91 @ 116

Fortunately, I got 8 passes in tonight.

This was my best pass. 1.625 60' and 11.756@117.36



I left the full interior in it.

Jon, you are on notice

Wow, that exceeded even my wildest expectations/predictions.
Amazing passes bro, the air was 'good' (for August) but it certainly wasn't what we all now know as great air.
I am very impressed.
