Rock, don't let him fool you. He has been running 160 to 165. Lol. I think this engine is smaller than what he has ran in the past. This one though, could be making more power. He may have snuck up to your house and borrowed one of yours. Lol

Ran it in Reynolds and was very consistant @ 165, was on the stop for 4.2- I don't care for that much time though. Gonna re-look at my TSrpm numbers before Orlando.

Lower that stop speed a little....

We got a Div. 4 racer that activates his T-stop on the top end, he runs 9.90's at 106-110. He has done well doing this. He is the only one I have seen do it. His car off the stop runs low 8's at 160+. His stop comes on after 1/8th mile.

You guys ever see anyone else doing that?

Rock hope all is well with the family.

We do it here in D-1

Struggled a bit in the beginning to make it run consistent but, the past few years we have been able to run it right on 9.90's. We usually are right around 9.90 @ 118mph. Car will run 9.00's wide open. We do get the random head shaker and the car will spit out a 9.80 with the same numbers from the previous run.

There used to be a super gas racer in Div 2 that used to do that and there is a super comp racer that still does it down here. Neither one had much success. The problem I see with it is in order to do that, they will have to set their car up to be safe on every run because they will never be able to judge a car that may be 50 to 60 mph faster at the stripe. The better racers will know that and hold a tenth or more, so they can catch them way before the finish line and set up on them. Div 4 racers usually set up fairly honest so most of the fast cars out there probably wouldn't try that approach if they were racing a guy with a top end stop. Just my 2 cents
