What did everyone run????
 
I have only seen Chris Heltra's time. What did everyone run? Do I need to save up for a new Whipple?

After 4 days of running around on the docks at the boat show, I was hoping to have some good reading.

Yes!!! If you really want to beat the Black and Silver Lightning. I would go TURBO :lol:

I got a new best on my 60'. Still no new best in the 1/8th. I think I know what I need to do to get that 6, and won't cost anything. It's just going to be a while before I do it. :)

Like I said Larry. Go Turbo!!!

Nice 60 Ft. Times Mike!!! No wonder you lifted the front tires up 3" that was with the heavy wheels :lol:

I bet you would have gotten your 6.xx if it was cooler. That last run you made could have been a 6.xx if they would have given you a slip.

Another timeslip issue at Dorchester? No way!



Sweet 60' man! That had to feel good. I want that 1.4 pretty bad also. Best I've been is 1.50. Maybe with the new tires I can't afford yet......

You may want to check out a coged belt setup. You will get zero belt slip out of that but it is kinda noisy
