Default Ran up in Tennesee

What's up guys. I had a chance 2 weekends ago to hit a track up on Newport,TN. It was just a 1/8th mile but hey at least the car made it down the track this time!!

First pass... Blew the drive shaft off the transfercase. WTF?

Droped the transfercase and drive shaft and made a fwd pass.

Went 9.2 @97



Third pass we fixed the driveshaft and got the car put back together.
I eased it out of the hole so nothing broke and ran a new best!!

Hit 6.92 @113 1.7 60'



This one is kinda blury

Maybe its just me, but why were they cheering as you crossed the 330? And why did it show your time around about the same time? Why does the guy on the video say 116 mph?

Thats a verry odd track, Nice run though.

He said that because he's dumb... he was also the one with the blury camera that can record in 1080i...

They were chearing because I actually made it into 2nd gear with out anything breaking haha!

And the track was actually up hill a little. The shutdown area was really up hill you didn't even need to hit the brakes any.


I'll see if the car will back up the times tomorrow
