IFO Winner - Columbus

I won the Forced Induction Sport class in Columbus Ohio this weekend. I was looking for 10's and didn't quite make it. I ran an 11.0 @131mph. That is 1 sec faster than last year's numbers. I was pretty happy with the trap..my best was 132 mph.
I'm not up with the big dogs in this section but it is a start. Not many 3 rotors street cars on the strip though.

More seat time and it will come down. 132 is more than plenty for a ten sec. Pass .

Thanks for the encouragement. It is addicting. When I first bought the car it was stock and all I was going to do was add a turbo timer..That was many $$ ago. Then I thought I might run the car at the strip. Now I have a modified transmission and looking at what it takes to do a 2 step.......I guess there is no such thing as too fast or too much hp.
