Holy Crap,

I just got to the shop and got my first look at Brandi ready to run... Damnnnnn....

She looks and sounds the part to make the runs I want to make... and according to what I've seen, has the guts to do it as well... No publc announcements on the power, but she'll go...

See y'all there!

We're taking our Ford GT out with its new engine, gotta keep that #1 spot on lockdown

We may be bringing a Venom out to the Halfmile Aeros&Autos show. Both events will be pretty awesome.

Yup, we haven't run the car on the dyno with nitrous... too much tire spin without it... and that's with 4 straps, two guys sitting on the trunk lip- and two guys standing on the straps...

Glad to hear it... That car is fun to watch... and what a close competition for the number one spot.... I'm sporting a new motor after the October run as well...

Mike, don't know for sure if you're on here, but congrats to you and Sam88gta for setting a new 5th Gen Standing Mile record, and then breaking your own... 206.3 and 210.x. In a convertible no less...

Colby, what a pleasure to meet you in person...congratulations on the personal best...

Dave, always a pleasure to meet others from the same industry... We'll be seeing each other at events periodically... And I look forward to it...

I accomplished no full runs this weekend... But I did manage to grenade two drivers side turbos...we'll sort it out and be back, hopefully in October...

Robert, likewise it was a pleasure to meet you and Brandi! That is one amazing car, sucks about the turbo losses for you. A BIG thanks to Robert and his crew for the loaner axles! Saved my weekend! Personal best of 186.1! Not bad for single turbo with a small cam. I will take it any day of the week!

We will see you guys in October!

It was great meeting Rob And Colby too...always good to put a face to a name.

We also got a personal best of 165.3 with a Jannetty tune,Vararam tune intake,Vararam Power wedge and Vmax throttle body.

They had a dyno there and i put down 365/365 with these mods.

pretty good gain from my 158.1 from last year bone stock.

Sunday weather was almost perfect conditions for it, strong tailwind, cool temps and fairly warm track surface .

Now to install the headers and work on my traction problem!!!

Is it October yet???
