You must have seen a different video. Please watch the one I posted in the first post, and look close at the slo-mo at the end. AT LEAST 5+ full revolutions in the first few feet.

I was just hoping for it to hook. Car has always had issues spinning the tires. No clue what it would do if it left on a 1.3x. I was honestly hoping for a 9.30 for that day. The 9.29 was a nice surprise.

Pass was on ~18psi. TH400, transbrake, no 2step (YET!!!! Hook me up Synergy!!!!!). Takes for ever to come up on boost on the tbrake.



Funny sidenote: I hot lapped the last 2 passes (9.36@152.xx followed by the 9.29@153.xx and picked up a MPH on the second pass. The first one coolant was in the low 180s after the burnout, and the 2nd one was 195. Seems like my car might like a bit more heat in it for the pass. Even my 1st pass off the trailer went 152mph after it was only in the high 170s after the burnout.

My car is street tuned. Who cares what a dyno says anyway......I race on a track. It makes enough power to push a 3600 lb sled 153mph in 1320 feet.

Ahh I see. Thats always nice to have a succesful run like that.
