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

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

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......

I don't know about all that,Larry,our best time was a7.85.I think the truck will do alittle better,having problems with belt slippage.Checked it this afternoon and only 8lbs of boost out of the hole.We put another size smaller belt on and still slipped,but got 12lbs,next I'll order a tensioner,

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