Default 9.4@150 incar video

I visited the track Friday night on my quest for the 8's, but conditions were far from ideal and I also found a few things I can make better.

No record breaking, as I have actually been a little faster than this before, but it was nice to make multiple back to back 9 second passes and have no problems.

Here is the incar video - you can tell the car comes out rather soft... it actually bogged a little because I dialed the launch down after sliding around on the previous pass. I left at 4400rpm & 4psi to turn a 1.60 60'.

REAL Nice

I see you converted the climate to a display. Is that your A/F?

holy crap, that builds my motivation even more. how much did this project set you back in terms of cost of all the mods? is that red button you push some sort of line-lock that allows you to apply gas without moving?
