9.552 @ 150.9 i got both my '50s and almost didnt stop!

[speeding-g6O]

and almost didnt stop. unbeknownst to me, on this last pass of the day (for obvious reasons LOL) the staging brake decided to puke all over. but i didnt know it until the pass was made and it was time to stop. and i got all of this fountain show on vid as i use a gopro to specifically watch the shifting action. the brakes felt a little bit mushy after the burnout, and the staging brake didnt feel as tight either.

the day was great, made 3 full passes in a row, all shifted great, each one progressively quicker than the previous by .13 sec each. picked up 37 mph on the back half of the first pass even.

i am working on processing all the videos, and Jon is going to do some intro work i think. so stay tuned for those.

but boy MF HOWDY, what a world of difference it makes actually being able to shift easily and cleanly!!!!

my tuner told me once i run a 9.5x he will give me >800 at the wheel.... well i did it!

[A2TDI]

congrats on the run...did you have to change your underwear after? lol

[agnhare77]

fast, faster, BOOGIE

[schwartzmagic]

Congrats bud!!!

Aaron, was curious as to how much of a a difference would being higher than sea level make? I know 183 ft isn't too high up but it has to make some kind of difference.

Can't wait to see what the car does > 800whp... Gonna be hurtin some egos lolz.

Local honda dude on same turbo as yours is making 900+whp on that thing...

[Mark Morris]

Awesome Aaron! Keep-up the good work and keep listening to Kevin.

[PartsBlowOut]

congrats dude!! now go fix your brakes

[speeding-g6O]

done deal. already bought a new staging brake, a CNC one this time. talked to Jamar about this one and they want to see it to fix it.

and i will be running Sunday at the Bug-In, trying some more. i am just going to reconnect the brake lines under the car to bypass the staging brake.
