Well, after hunting for it for years now (and probably breaking too many parts trying to get it), the weekend finally got him the 9's! 9.881 yesterday, and another 9.878 today!!! Nice runs w/ front end lift, too! Now on to break into the 5's on the 1/8th :) Only about 0.2 to go ;)

Thanks Garry. I am glad the weather was decent. I figured out that hopefully the converter is slipping at 20-22% going through the lights. I just pray it isn't the tranny again. Brand new freakin TH400 smoked third gear just like the last tranny? I doubt it. The car should trap in the 140 range with a tighter converter. BTW, I have never used 2 1/2 bottles of nitrous at one event before.

I will post a video of the 9.87 pass in a few.

I did not know you are back in Germany. I'm in K-town now. I remember meeting you back in Bamberg. Awesome times on that car. Help me find some stock rear springs fro a 4th..to pass inspection.
