Silverliner AKA silver bargeWent to Famoso this weekend for TnT and Summit Series bracket race. Tighter converter, leaf spring sliders, relocated shocks, new cooling and charging system and I have a bracket car suddenly. Dead hooks every pass, 9.91 & 9.89 yesterday, 9.83 & 9.85 this morning, 9.891 on a 9.89 dial round 1 in afternoon with red bulb, got a little excited -.013.
I can finally focus on chassis and engine tune again, completely amazing. Now to get the 60 ft.s back in the 1.40's and hopefully 1.30's and the ET's a bit lower. And more MPH. And a pony.

James, I didn't say whether I was spraying already and given my 50/50 track record of finishing vs. DNF you have nothing to worry about in any event.

Haven't lit up a slick since 1994 and already been bit by the speed bug........need to get it together before I max out the plastic on "go a little faster" parts. E-Bay is an addiction. Good thing I will have more shop time come May 25th.
