10.2 @142 is pretty good. What kinda mishaps are we talking about? Broken parts, driver issue,etc....
With a little more seat time I am sure that car will be doing some good times.

Great time racing today! Thanks again to Ray for getting my *** ready for the race. And thanks Rob for lining my *** up in the box. I ran today with a brand new stock tranny. Bitch wouldn't come out of 2nd gear at 9000rpm to save my life. I had to double clutch loosing valuable time and still went 10.20@141mph at 28psi.
When I turned the boost up to 32psi, the tranny got worse with getting out of gear, but that bitch pulled like a freight train! I gained 40mph between the 1/8mile and the 1/4. Can't wait to get my PPG back!
I made it to the semi-finals, but the antilag started drifting my car foward so I had to hit the brake. By that time the light already droped and I was dead in the water. Still had a great time.
and I got a new best personal et.

Great job Ernie!!! Do you think you messed up the brand new tranny, or was it just not letting you do what you wanted to?
Anybody catch some video of it?

Was good to see you guys. Always cool when a fellow rotor head helps out another!
And yes, I remember a lexus blowing past us at Mach 4 around 8:30ish! Did you go to MIR?
No the stock tranny isn't messed up. I found out from Ari, when they are "brand new", you actually need to break them in because all the gears, etc.. are so sharp, so me trying to shift mad fast at 9k didn't really agree with it, lol...
9's coming very soon. I can smell it now
Thanks again to Rob, my new crew chief
