track results w/in
Got two runs today. The first one my hood popped loose but didnt come off. There was a single strip of "duct tape" on it since we havent got the front hood pins on yet. It came loose. I let off to a 12.20 @ 88mph.
Go up and make the second run and I come back to the pits and there is oil spewed out onto the engine. We have a vacuum leak at the front and back of the intake. So, it only limited me to 5 psi of boost
Here is the run down of that second run though
60': 1.67
1/8: 7.08 @ 100.3
1/4: 10.95 @ 126.49
I cant wait to see what this thing is going to do with 25psi of boost!!
Im pretty pleased considering the intake leak!

Man, I hate you.
Get some vids of a run @ 25psi, launching off the transbrake, with the intake actually sealed.
And get some hood pins
Edit - at 25psi, he'll hit low9s with no problem (assuming traction is somewhat remotely there)

wow those are great times, especially considering the intake leak and only 5 psi. that thing is gonna be insane once you fix the intake and dial up the boost. congrats on the times.

Once I get some suspension work done, it should hang the fronts pretty good. I hope so at least. Nothing too high but a little off the ground would be fun!
