Yes, but he said he had a 2.0 60ft time. Usually on a fast pass people get 1.6 or possibly even 1.5 60ft. If he could have managed a 1.6 that would have been a good .8 seconds off his ET if not a hair more, aka 10.9 instead of 11.7 time.

The slower 60ft will help mph for sure but I would like to see the time slip myself. If your trapping 130 then you get the Hoosiers and you will be in the 10's or sure. I've ran 10's with the 18" m/t drag radial but it was hit and miss.

If you did in deed trap that Angelo, with the regular drag setup of hoosiers and clk steelies, that is good for a 10 sec pass with a 1.60 60 ft or better.

Ok, just so we are clear, you did not run 130 mph trap speed right?

Because on your iPhone 5 for sale thread you clearly know how to take picture and post picture on the forum, yet you refuse to do that here. I was giving you the benefit of the doubt, but now it's clear!

I'm sorry as my priorities were not to take a picture for you while my house and restaurant got flooded with water and I ran around like crazy the next day trying to find a generator to get power at home and work.

I have sent the slip to people that texted me and didn't think I needed to prove anything to you.

Text me 0000 and I'll send you the skip as I don't feel.like uploading it to imageshack then posting it here.

Now if I was getting 800 bucks thats a different story lol

edit got my number off here

pm u

I don't want to step on any more toes. It's his thread and his time slip, so I'll let him post it up at his own discretion. I just don't want to open up another can of worms.
