I'll have my Dad and wife take some video and there are usually some other people that take vids too.

Tone, the track that I am going to race I always run a couple tenths slower than the 1/8the mile track. I think its because of the air there and slightly higher altitude. I'm going to guess low 11's but would love to see a 10.9x.

Thanks, I am running a 26x8.5" tires and sorry, I swore to secrecy to the gearing gods.

Low 11s 12a is still worthy of praise. As far as I know there are only two or three 13b's that have made it into the 10's here in Oz and all except one where done many years ago.

On another note, if I was looking for a list of quickest AM cars in US / PR where would I be looking? Thinking off adding a world list to my other lists --> http://www.angrybeeracing.com/am-leader-boards/ and don't look at the rest of the site, i haven't updated it in a while

That is the same size tire I am using.as far as rear gear I think I know what you are running.but you can keep it a secret.I am going to be using a 6.00,although not quit enough for running just on the motor,iv had planned on spraying when I bought the gears.

If that's the excuse you wan't to use so that you don't have to race the little 12a then so be it. Just kidding, man that sucks! I thought you just had the transmission fixed? I hope you can get it fixed in time for the event. Do you have any more vids of your passes?

you guys messing with the cars, too much told you chris you will get lost a while back......just go back to your old setups.

darby...you can run with a 4 speed lol......or put your stock tranny back in there like the old days.Or you can flip some of the sliders with the dog rings with the other gears......

You can bust a cheap move ask Rene to weld the edges of the dog gears and sliders to get more meat on them and epoxy the springs back ......I know how but i don't weld... this tranny is very friendly to work on !!

Ok guys here's the results...................
Track was not prepped very well and I couldn't hook but still managed my best
ever of a 11.48 at 115mph. This is with a crappy 1.6 60ft and 7.3 1/8th mile. I know the car has an 11.0 or even a 10.9x in it but I'm moving on to better things. I already have this motor sold and I am putting the 13b together. I should have the 13bpp up and running in about a month or so. I am dog tired and my dad forgot to give me the video so I will post the videos up here shortly. Thanks for the support and stay tunned because I will make a 9 second pass.
