Finally got a chance to finish my NHRA license passes last night. My car was hooking to hard and producing huge wheelies that hurt my et's. Still managed a 6.44 and a 6.46
Here's a vid of one of my biggest wheelies

So did some 1/4 mile testing with the skateboard wheels yesterday. First pass 10.33@125 spinning.
Each pass we made tire and fuel changes and managed 10.10@128.4mph. We had one last pass that we thought we would run a 9 but I choked and forgot to let my finger off the two step button and the car fell on its face and I aborted the run. All in all pretty good for 24.5" tires and no wheelie bars. That has to be a record lol
Here's a vid of the 10.1 pass
