Congrats! :)

That doesn't convey much bragging though. Shoot, if I'd run in the 12's I'd be SHOUTING from the rooftops! LOL :D

I didn't think to post to the fastest link, it looks like I missed being THE fastest nitrous car by .01 seconds. :)

This run was videotaped, when I get it posted I'll stick a link here.
 
Thanks for the meat! :D

Now that's what I'm talking about. When someone else reads your post they will know what combo you were running and more importantly where and what conditions you were running under!

Zero point zero one seconds!!! Doesn't that bite! LOL :D

BTW, did you do any runs N/A? I'd be curious what your ETs were with what mods you have. ;)
 
Grats!

Grats!

Wow, throw some slicks on her and you'll have it. Whats your 60 foot Devin? And car weight? Good top end too. :cool:

Actually Devin's car sticks like glue on street tires. He spins on occasion, but for the most part it launches quite well. I'll let him tell you about last night though. :D
 
My 60 foot runs between 1.9 and 2.0, depending on how much I granny it. I have a set of very nice drag radials but I have been running on street tires to sort of prove a point... when I roll up to the line no one expects anything out of my car at all. Just a big, quiet Lincoln on street tires, what's he going to do?

I blew the doors off a stage 3 Rousch Mustang last night that was down-talking all the Lincolns at the track (there were 3 Mark VIIIs there). Beat him by 6 tenths of a second, in front of all his friends. :)

I also posted a new best time last night of 12.66 at 109.49 mph. So where do I go to post this? I believe that puts me in the #1 spot for nitrous Mark VIIIs.

I enjoyed that race. You know from the launch he was like, "ok, the lincoln tree'd me, but wait until I pass him." Too bad he had to wait until the return road to pass you! Bwahahahahaha!!!! :D
