Well, me and my brother are headed to Vegas tomorrow to hit up the midnight drags. :)

I will post up the results(broken parts) :D

warming up the slicks...

Should be fun :) Can't wait to see what it runs!

[turbo325i]

My brother and I on our way down to Vegas.



Got back from Vegas and I got some fairly decent baseline numbers to start with... I left a lot on the table and am kinda dissapointed, but I know I can do better.

Here are some interesting time slips...

[turbo325i]

I wasnt able to squeeze those drag radials, or m/t slicks, so I had to improvise with some 16" old hoosiers... 225-50-16

The boost for the drags was 15psi in 1st and 2nd and was up to 20-22psi in 3rd and I grabbed 4th I think...

I am having boost control issues. I cant achieve the target 20psi in 1st and 2nd gear for some reason... I need to sort it out...

I am having a hard time launching... But that may just be the short(er) sidewall slicks, or I am afraid to really launch it...

Vid of the 12.01 run. Watch it in H.D.

12.0!! WICKED!

The John Deere Blitz Black is an excellent quality semi-flat that is very cheap, 2 part paint.

Way to go Brett, this is really impressive stuff. Really too bad you couldn't get those DRs on though, that would have got the 60' under 1.8 and ET under 12.

I love how the TransAm left before you and you still beat it by 2 seconds. I also love how the entire crowd was like OOOOOOOOOOOOOH!!! at the end of the vid. :rofl: :rofl:

[everlast]

Yeah, that crowd "oooo" is something to be proud of. :)

[e30polak]

Love the unintentional bracket win against the Trans Am!

Decent numbers, but I know you will break way down into the 11s with the DRs. Keep up the good work Brett! :twisted:

Yea, I ran dot hoosier slicks... But the sidewall was not meant for drag racing. They got sticky, but there not the marshmallow tires I want to launch @ 5k on haha Yea, 11's are in the bag, but I didnt get it :(

haha yea, I wasnt trying to slingshot him or anything, I just was the second to stage and the lights go so fast I cant get ready in time, so because the timer doesnt start till you break the beam, I just did my own thing and left when I was ready.

Yeah, that crowd "oooo" is something to be proud of. :)

haha yea my wife was in the stands and people were betting on my car and it def surprised a lot of people :)

Thanks guys for the kind words!
