I was watching sick week day 3. Happened to see 64nailhead run at the 5:14 mark on youtube(tom Bailey channel). Congrats on the PB, Monte Alban looks pretty good on the tv. It looks like the front is bouncing, is that from a wheelie or something else?

It was from not enough power on the hit. I’m working in that. Tomorrow, hopefully, I’ll be putt in’ the wood to the front half. It’s getting out the back door pretty well.

Monte Alban ( 64nailhead ) can also be seen in the Vice Grip Garage video for day 3 at about 8:15 running against a 4th gen F-Body. Go Jim!

Cool sheet. Ethan Dunn is one of my buddies actually local here in Louisville. His pass yesterday he said the wastegates didn't catch, boost spiked to 46lbs!!!! Luckily the boost cut saved his *ss, but he thinks the motor is hurt. It has a 4bar map so they're gonna give it all the beans today and see if it holds lol!

My comment wasn’t completely accurate. After watching the videos, I went out checked out the front end travel limiters and found they were set much looser than previous. So I’m sure that contributed to the bouncing a bunch. I’ll rectify that today and hoping to make the hit A LOT harder.

I seen you again today. As soon as I turned it on, there you were. Looks like you lifted, nothing broke did it?on that 9.4 run it looked like it was scooting down the back

We made it through the week, which is the 1st win. Tied for 1st was the time spent with my son. The 2nd win is the car isn't wounded. The 3rd win is a personal best ET, MPH and 60'. So all and all it was a very good week. The weather was a nice break as well.

I'm off from DnD events until Summit Midwest Drags that start on July 10th.

p.s. the 'Midwest Drags' aren't in the midwest this year, but rather VA, MD and NJ. Hoping to see some of you there.
