Good move Better call them first and make sure they have everything before you take the ride.

Last time I checked ....once was enough people post their quickest time.s..........Rob didnt add 12.5@108 to his sig. because he ran the 11.81@113 once....... Just accept the fact that your truck is not as quick.

Glad you got down to the track! Just wanted to know if your mph went up from your previous? I know the track was not holding for you this weekend. From my experience I have found that the ported eatons increase mph because of the top end charge. Just wanted to know if you seen this.

Also was anything changed in your chip program other than more fuel?

Also was the weather greatly different? I know your fastest run was at Cecil (I think) so there may be a difference there also.

Damn dude, it was a Chevy and an Eclipse. No sweat though. They blew by us all so fast they could have been mistaken for an SRT-10 and a Ferrari.

I can't believe they handed all three of us our a$$es and made you break your truck and pull over!!

Yeah I can see the threads now on eclipse.net or something. "I raced 3 lightnings and beat them all, one even broke."

All I can say is that I'm glad my fuel jug was capped because that would have been a big mess if it would have opened. I guess it was stupid of me to do that, but sometimes you just have to show the punks who's boss.

Emailed Justin@JDM today about my "issues". He said to bring it down whenever and they'll take care of it, so that's cool.

Well geeee there Mr Red 92
Since your so concerned

Last time I looked you have to back up a run in NHRA to make it a record. And since your so concerned, Rob and I have run many times. The best he had run was a 12.07 at Cecil with a 65hp shot and 6lbs. So we go to E-town and he steps up the shot to a 75 with 6lbs, and runs the 11.81 at a track that is known to be a tenth slower than Cecil.

Oh by the way, I've run 2 thousands of my best time many times

This is why you need to back up any run to be legit
