RedBullJnky, Kustom2K1, and amx1397 met at PBIR last night
First, a BIG CONGRATS to Kustom2K1 for hitting a new personal best last night. 
His SL55 is a monster and ran 11.4x. I don't have all his details but maybe he'll post his slip. I do have video though. Those will be up shortly.
Also amx1397 ran great and consistant. He has a newly installed killer chiller on his Crossfire w/ 55K engine. He ran 11.2x all night at 126mph. That's a very fast sleeper for sure.
And of course me. I had 4 runs in. I ran full weight and on 93oct with rear drags on. First run was 11.16 @124mph /1.61 60ft. Parked the car and it was idling all rough and very high. Turned the car off then on and it seemed fine.
Second run was my first ever 1.57 60ft. It ran 11.10 @ 124mph. Again went to park and the car was idling rough and high. So I turned it off and let it cool down.
Third and fourth runs were 11.1 @ 124 and 11.2 @ 125. And those were back to back runs right before the track closed.
All in all it was a good night. Temp was 65 degrees. Don't know the DA. South FL doesn't see these types of conditions very often so we had to go. And we always have fun.
After the bad idling and the check engine light I went to Rage-Tek this morning and found a boost leak and meth line off. So we fixed it and I will be pulling seats, adding the Braile battery and retuning on Q16. And I'll be back at PBIR tomorrow night. Hopefully she will hit 10's before I leave for MIR.

E was haulin the mail last night, I thought he had that 10 sec pass when the fast 60 flashed on the board. Considering he drove 50 miles, slapped on DR and ran those numbers on pump gas with full interior, yea that cars deep in the 10s when shes in full race mode.
Jims chasing that 10 sec number, but he couldn't get the car to hook and never got a good 60. 11.22 at 126 says shes a 10sec *****.
Good times and great group.
NPB 11.43@121.59, I need an 82mm TB
1.635 my best 60 in the SL on 18s nitto DR

Cool to see everyone running low in the 11s and man Elliot, full weight and on pump gas those times are excellent. Your car has certainly come a long ways. Hope you have a good trip up the road

05 crossfire w/SL55 drivetrain installed by Rudy Compart Intake/Needswings best et-10.76 @ 129
had a great time..
kustom2k1 got and some great runs. When he ran that 11.4 , I said damn that's what I usually run consistently. he just laughed and said look out,, here I come.
I ran 11.22 ,,backed that up with 11.25, but then heard something in my rear in and wasn't sure if I should run again or not. So I did make one more run but I took it easy and still knocked off a 11.3.
redbulljunky got there about 10 o'clock, he rushed to get his tires on, with that loud *** E55 of his. he went up to get in a run. The minute He did his burnout, you would have thought That a rail had just done a burnout because everybody was running toward the line to see what's going on. he made his run, I heard one guy say I ain't running him, I heard another guy say damn that car is F******! fast. he came around to the pits jumped out drained out his ice tank, put some new ice in it,,shut down the car ,,restarted it and to the line he went and did it again, that loud *** car doing a burn out. ,, people leaving the track stopped to watch him rum they weren't disappointed ,, Oh today when he got to the shop Nemo found a vac leak and the fuel or something was not flowing correctly,,
here is the video of one of my run's,,

With his straight pipe-catless exhaust, and my electric cutouts running open headers, it should be nice and calm
