Da Pinks Car 9.59 @140.78!
 
We went to Island dragway on Sunday. It was a beautiful day. Unfortunelty my wife couldn't go this time because she was sicker than a dog! My brother in-law, Eddie (Turbonatr) had come with me to help me out. First pass we left everything alone from the license passes and it ran a 9.69 @139.70 60' 1.42. Next pass took 2 psi of air out of the tires and turned the boost up 3 psi, ran 9.59 140.78 60' 1.393. I had one more run @ 9.67, but something was a little weird with that one so I will be sending the file to Jack for futher observation.I think something is up with the boost controller. She definetly has more in her.

Car ran fantastic overall. I couldn't be happier with it. I got alot of compliments about it. Thank's Jack! :D

Thanks! I would say it was between 25-26 psi. I had brought the laptop to the track but battery died on me. I only got a recording of the last pass. When I get home tonight I am going to get the file out of the XFI and send it to Jack. I have Cometics for headgaskets.

Tony! How are ya! You hit the nail on the head! I gotta see if Jack has some of that in stock! You know when people were asking me what I thought this combo was going to bring me and I told them, they looked at me in dis-belief, and look where we are now! So who knows. some better 60ft times, some more boost and Jack's magic with the XFI I really do think it is possible. Wouldn't that be something! I know if it does happen I wouldn't be able to leave it like that, but it I would like to have it just once.

Hey Jack, I got home last night and it wasn't pretty. Everyone was still sick so I didn't have a chance to go out to the trailer. So this morning at 5:30 I went out and hooked up the laptop. I thought I read though the help index pretty good on how to get that file out. Needless to say I will be calling you today.:)

Thanks Jim. I am hoping to go out one more time this year, but this time with Jack. Hopefully we can get it together. Jack and I were looking over the log from the last run and that 9.67 run at the top of 1st it just peaked at 25 psi and I hit the limiter again (my fault):rolleyes: 2nd and 3rd were between 21 and 22psi!
