If you need any video of the passes, just give me a yell Mark! Your video is uploading as I type this, so you can see how you like it. Congrats again on an astonishing pass!

 

Josh, you were a fucking zombie there. Rightfully so, but it was still kind of funny. Glad to see that pinky was in one piece though. ;)

video is really cool.... Thanks for posting that. Can someone link that in my post on corvetteforum.com in the c6zo6 section. My daugter is in the hospital.... Apendicitis hit at our dinner to celbrate the pass and I can't cut and paste on my iPhone.

Nice job on that 9sec pass Mark!!! Tech was going over you like a fly on shit, which brings me to something.

 

Is NTR not the most fucked up track EVER? I mean come on, 1sec we have a heads up tree, next time up we have a pro? Tech took me a hour to get through (fuck NHRA rules) This event was soooo smoothly run at 42 last month.

 

It was a bad day for my car. To many changes done at once to the car since last weeks shoot out:(

 

Still an OK time... good to see a few people I aint seen in a while!

Since the wingless car was an EVO8 I assume the only pics I got of your car were with/behind Mike's EVO:

Mike's EVO was running low low boost (23psi) and he hasn't been to the track for over 2 years so he wasn't expecting much. Traps were in the 131 range for most of the day which was about what we were assuming they would be for as hot as it was. Not a bad day at all...

I was really impressed with the Evos there. You guys really know what you're doing with those cars.

 

On another note, whose white Talon drag car was that? I got a really sick shot of it leaving the line and losing traction. It was one of my most favorite clips of the event.

Thanks. We're still trying to sort out many issues with the car but did make some progress yesterday. It went 10.50 on one pass which is still way off from where we want to be but we did get over some big clutch hurdles yesterday. Keeping the car straight and the power to the tires has been an issue so far. We hope to make the next CR rental and keep improving before the season ends.

I saw it walk around quite a bit one pass and I was hoping Mikey was going to keep her shiny side up :) Car screams when he is able to stay in it so it should REALLY start flying with some more seat-time. Can't wait to see what she will do when the weather starts cooperating in the fall.

Congrats Mark on the 9 second pass - nice job! Looking forward to seeing you run on kill mode.

 

We were really looking forward to this event, but bailed on the 5 hr trip Sunday morning when forcast still called for thundershowers. I've been rained out 4 times so far this year....Ohio weather can suck.

Is that a burschur racing sticker on the back of the white evo's door? If so I saw this guy on 70 yesterday, looked like he wasnt in a good mood. Car was looking and sounding good though :thumbup:
