  • Larson down but not out.

    MSD Power Grid system problem had the Larson brain trust busy. A midnight test hit failed with a squeak at the end of a long funny car-style burnout. They've put the truck up for the night and are analyzing data logs. Larson told his team to work methodically toward a clean run before Monday's session ends It's a full moon in Tulsa....

          There's probably an MSD tech on a Learjet headed towards Tulsa right now!

            Loose crank sensor. All fixed. And here I thought the loose screw was Chad in the passenger seat.

                    They were saying he was 10mph faster in the 1/8 than Bailey ran, and Bailey has supposedly ran the quickest today. I think that 6.99 was at 185mph.

                      Yeah, I have turned down low so the bosses don't notice. But it looked like he layed off the throttle about 3/4 track and then pulled the chutes before the lights.

                      Edit:

                      I sooooo want this thing to have enough track to do a full boogie!!

                        What time did he make a full run?

                          He hasn't made a full run, jut the 6.99 pass. Sounds like he is making another run this afternoon.

                          As for sound, I've been getting funny looks as people walk by my office I think tomorrow I'm going to bring a set of head phones to keep one in my ear.

                            Yeah, I left mine home. So have music playing on my speakers to drown out the video sounds out of the PC. Of course me yelling out "Oh shit!" doesn't help.

                              Looks like it was a 6.99 at 164mph =P
