I'll save you the $40.00

1.321 (back tires)
3.921
6.123
111.51
8.021
9.653
133.59

would have been a 9.628. Still not good enough for the record:D

2nd round qual.

1.291
3.928
6.130
111.46
8.027
9.634
140.08

Anything else I can help you with?

I don't know about that.... It looks like your in the 50s in the heat and humidity...
I think the blower 5.0L guys should be there also but not the 2V blower cars.

I need to look at all the numbers more...

Not to be an a$$ Shawn, but look at the incrementals. It is simple math. You will see that every single set of incrementals are the same from the 330 on between the 2 passes. Even compare the NMRA vs NMCA race. The same. If you want video with the wheels in the air (remember that I said that is what it takes in these Real Street stick cars...Wheels up) I can provide you with the video:D

Watch the pass against Mike Bell and I. My car spun (did not do big wheelie). And then look at my ET's. Same 60ft 1.322,3.960,6.166,111.27,8.069,9.681,139.78. The front tires were on the ground on this pass. Watch the video on stangtv. It spun.

At Joliet I feel that my car ran some 1.28 60fts with the 3.92 330 et's, but since I wheelied passed the 60ft mark the back tires/somewhere else other then the front tires trip the beams and 1.32 60 fts are shown. I have always told people. Most do not know what to do to that race track. I DO!!! It is my home track and it ROCKS!!!

One question... Are you using the .094 jet size?

And as I said I do need to look at all the numbers more. I Still feel the 4.6L combos got hit too much the last time.

I have a .093 stamped jet in the car. The tech dept checked my jet and P&G'd me after 2nd round of qualifying. They checked my .093 stamped jet with a .093xx pin guage and it failed :eek: , trust me I was sweating after it failed. I never want to fail any inspection for any reason. Then they checked it with a .094xx guage and it passed. Thom and Lonnie can verify that what I have said is fact. Don't take my word for it. Ask them, or you can ask Justin. He was there.

It just seams that with 12 jet sizes and a lower weight from last season you should be in the 50s. What was your best last year?

Last year I ran 9.80 once. Most of my runs were in the mid to high 9.80's

Adding nitrous of this jet level is much more difficult then I can say. I am not going to say how I make this engine live at this jet level. I have worked too hard to give that away. If I had the ability to to do things like other combinations then it would be a different story:D

As a matter of fact I am the teacher. :082:

Weight breaks???????????? I keep forgetting that this is the first time in 5 YEARS that the 4.6L has had to race at a higher weight then the push rod does. With all do respect do not piss on my head and tell me it is raining when they have had the weight break for 5 years!!!!!!!!!
