[QUOTE="cobra93, post: 8493390, member: 2689"] Got one good pass in at Gateway last Tuesday night. Took it easy first time out this year with a 6,500 rpm launch and struts set pretty stiff. Made a 9.78 @ 140.6 pass in 2,800 ft density altitude. 60-ft was a not-so-great 1.37 (1.30 is where should be), but didn't want to set it on stun first time out. Shifted at 8,800 (nosed it over on 1-2 shift, LOL). Smoke down track was from a little oil dripping onto header from breather. Video is pretty good for those interested...
