[QUOTE="beefcake, post: 13995277, member: 1692"] first round we ran a 9.81. Fighting the converter all weekend. It can only get to 4500 with no 2 step. we were trying 3500,4000, etc.... Elissa went a 10.44 I think first round. . LOL, funny, everyone thought that. Best pass had been a 9.81 in qualifying, 9.71 in a test run. the 9.71 was with a 1.71 60', I was in the 1.8s the rest of the weekend. Richard was qualified 2nd I think with a 9.2. We went to BS with him before the semi finals. They mentioned they were putting the car on kill in the finals against urist's car and we hadn't even ran yet. We decided to shut off the 2 step. IT's a 100rwhp and 80 ft/lb difference from 4000 to 4500. I figured if the converter isn't flashing, lets just try to start high. When the tree came down, I could tell the car left much better. 1.51 60' and a 9.33 to Richards 9.27 I believe. My light was better though at a .046 to I believe a 1.54. If there was one round I needed to pull out it was that one. In the finals, I couldn't get the converter to push past 3500 and it 1.7's again, and went a 9.7 to hellions 9.1. Next race will be a different story. We'll have the new converter in and be ready for hopefully some 8.90's or so. :) see above 9. The bbr chassis is like 400lbs under weight, they have a ton of ballast but had tuning / nitrous gremlins all weekend. Richards car is 180 lbs heavy he said, and with only 1 shot went 9.10's on a brand new untested setup. He has a 350 shot ready for stage 2 lol. He even said the nitrous weight should be 3100lbs in his opinion. Good guys to race against and they really seem to know their stuff. Once he gets it dialed in it's going to be nasty. yep, see above You were mistaken, lol :) Thanks, lol! :) yep , she looks good going down the track!!! Again, great meeting the new faces and seeing the more familiar ones!! Always great to see the net left on the net and people hanging out having a good time at the track! [/QUOTE]
