AAAAAAHHHHH!!!!.......Success!!!!

Managed to trim my R/T (reaction time)...and 2/10's
of a second as well!!!!

The gates opened at 5:00pm and by 5:10pm I was in
staging lanes with the hood up cooling of the engine!!

I used the method of a long cool down and packing the
supercharger,discharge pipe, and throttle body air hat with lot's and lot's
of ICE!!!! .......of course right about now a few prayers never hurt
either!!!

The officials opened the track, turned on the lights
at about 6:15pm........"15 minutes till test and tune"
and started giving instructions to drivers in lanes 1 and
2.............yippee......we're FIRST TO GO!!
I toss the ice packs in the closest trash can....shut the
hood..............roll towards the right lane.......no burnout.....just
straight to the line while everythings still ICE
COLD!!...........prestage......stage........
yellow light trickles down....(leave on second yellow)
I get a green light (R/T .731)....I'm gone!!!!..BABY!

R/T---- .731
60' ----2.402
330'---6.710
1/8---10.315
MPH--67.92
1000'--13.471
1/4----16.149
MPH--84.06

I made 3 additional run's without benefit of a cool down between
each......Dak ran slower due to my trying a different launch technique each
time trying for more MPH........NO LUCK!!!

I'll need to dyno test and retune the timing and fuel mapping before the
next attempt!!
I also will need to get the tranny work completed
so high 15's will be a very strong possibility!!
