Well I got a short vid of last night. Rene and I were the only rotories out at the track. Were was everyone!!!!!!
I was hoping for a low 8 second pass but my best time was an 8.9 at 82.5 mph with a crappy 2.1 60ft. I had to peddle the street tires of the line thus the bad 60ft time. With that mph I should be in the low 8's high 7's with a decent rearend and slicks and I still need to tune the motor a bit more.
Rene had a good pass with a 6.54 at 105mph. Looks like the car had a little stumble off the line but it was pulling at the top end really well. I don't know if he made another pass as I had to go. All in all it was a good time and I look forward to doing it again with hopefully more rotary support. C'mon guys bring your cars out.
Here's the vid. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKWb8bys0vA

T O R Q U E!

Holy ****, just watched the videos. Car is fast as *****. You're trapping faster than me in the 1/8 mile than I do in the 1/4. That's pretty nuts.
Very nice, the onboard camera looked like it was having a minor heart attack trying to keep up with your car How much power does the 1st gen make, it's obviously light as a feather... any more details on the car (gearing, is the thing carbed or EFI?). Nice work and much props.
Now how many passes do you guys typically get in a day/night? I'd love to come out to practice my launch.
