Yeah when I got the pictures yesterday I thought the samething....we had just dropped the tires a .5 lb due to spinning before. Trying to see where the car would be happy. (That photo was the 6th nitrous launch in the car for me - the guy with his arms folded behind the car is the former owner)

Right after that picture was taken....it rattled the tires...then spun up. So I am going back up to 9lbs.

Image1.28 60ft 5.45@137. (remember the guy with the folded arms? That is him in the other lane with the 4th gen Camaro.)

Image1.31 60ft 5.21@140.

But good looking out guys.......I can use all the help I can get. I am going to have someone videotaping the car this weekend so we can review the car at the trailer.

I am also very greatful to Dan @ D&S Photography for these great shots. I am able to see things I need to take a look at on the car. Dan thanks!!!!!!

Yes back in the seat is where I want to be. ;) No surprises.....the car is great in that it feels like an 11sec car going down the track. That is until I look out the side windows and take in the MPH. :lol:

Ray's show was a blast....great turn out....wait till you see the video that goes with the pictures. I didn't get a chance to get around and see much of the show due to all the people stopping by asking questions and just general car talk. It was a lot of fun! :D Good for the ol soul and ego :wink: Cause I am just a regular guy like everyone that stopped to talk to me.....with an expensive toy. :oops: I remember being the guy walking around talking to the people with cars...and I still do.

I can't wait to get back out this coming Friday and Saturday with a new set of tires on the car.......yeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaawwwww
