Don't you guys know this is MIR? The MIRacle track that has -2000 DA every day and will cut half a second off automatically. Just ask some of the guys on the board. Records will be broken... Maybe the hottest march 23rd on record lol

Guys, I'm out tomorrow. Just no point for me to beat on her with temps in the 80s.

Good luck to those chasing PBs, and be safe out there.

track opens at 9:00am. But most of the guys have to unload their car from trailer, change tires, check this/that, go pay for the running. So maybe first run is 9:30am -10am the earliest. Was really foggy this morning so the track may still be wet/damp.

First pass of the day e55amgrocket did a shake down pass, no ice or spray, just rolled up to the line, and cracked this slip:

IATS climbed to 179* with the 195MM by the end of the run.

That would be me. Man this new file you did pulls like a freight train. We're going to Vbox the 60-130 next pass after the cool down. Going to make another pass on the motor then a little spray to help cool her down. IAT's were at 151 at the end of the run this pass with ice in the tank. If I can get a 1.5x 60ft I got a chance at the record

Put Ahmad's skinnies on and the 17lb braile and said its at 4380 now so that helps some. Next pass I'm coming out as hard as it can and see what it can run
