Won first place in the last race event for me of the year. Track was really bad- I was skating all over the place and won with 10.1 @ 127.5mph. I ran eight 10.0x passes this year! So close but yet so far away from that 9 second pass! Next year I'm pulling the rabbit out of the hat and get that 9 second pass. It's very very hard to run 9 seconds with small tires and no wheelie bars- trust me. If I put wheelie bars on my car I would have ran 9's long ago but they are not allowed in my class. I have a bunch of tricks up my sleeve for next year so stay tuned I won't disappoint. Cheers

Thanks everyone. This motor has been untouched for over 4 years of hard abuse. I'm going to tear it down, inspect and refresh all the seals. Plan on trying a little different port timing and a few things here and there. We'll see how much money is in my wallet lol

They are single adjustable for compression only. My struts are stock with tokico alumina inserts and ground control weld in coil over kit

Got some new goodies from a new Sponsor- CXRACING. All parts are titanium and are very nice and super light. Just to give a comparison 20 lug nuts are 1.2lbs lighter than the steel ones. Tension bolts are 1.7lbs lighter for the set, the e shaft front bolt and rear nut good for another 8oz and sleeves another 6-8oz. Every ounce counts when you're in search of that record pass. Now go get yours 😀
