No, I loaded up (wasted) 5 gallons of C 16, went out to Frank N Steins and tried to get something set up...no one wanted to go so I came home around 11...the moment I pulled into my driveway my phone rings and it is Peter w/ Jamie.
I will see you all out at the track today.

In the good way!! Got the "hook up" from VRAlexander last night at Ghost Bar in the Palms. Got right in, the line was 200 people deep at least. Played golf earlier in the day. Life is good.

The car was awd, and at a race weight of 3650lbs. Chris might be alittle to confident with the 142 traps but I can see the car touching 140 in cold weather. Chris did not launch the car ever time he tried it wheel hopped or spun I can promise that with a good launch mph will go up since his car lags pretty bad in first gear.

Yes
I can agree that Chris car is fast... I was playing around with some of the guys in Mexico I think friday night when I ran Chris. His car suprised me how fast it was! It sounded great as well! I think I will turn the boost to Hi and give him something to shoot for in his next build ;-) Now the question of the day... who has the fastest Porsche in H town among Chris, Sean, Paulie, Adam, etc......
Congrats
Robert

i saw several of your runs at the track.
the car is making tons of power on the big end. it looks like the setup is definitely paying off!
is your car 2wd or rwd? a few times on the launch, i noticed you were getting some serious wheel hop.
edit: just watched video. 2wd would expain the wheel hop.

Great trap speeds !
What did your car dyno on Friday at the show and shine.
You are at the edge of 10's like me and can taste it...
adding "an easy 140 to 142 trap " will not be easy, mph does not come from simple changes in weather.
my traps were the same in Houston (hot) as they were in Wisconsin.
It would be fun to see you break into the rarified territory of 140+
Good luck

That being said I do agree with Matt, 140 would be nice, and it will remain the goal.

Man Chris, that is HAULIN! And on the stock bottom end that's awesome! If you want to touch 140, take a hundred or two pounds out of that sucker next time. Can't wait to see the 60-130s dude.
Oh yeah, and pull fuse B9 to help you out with that wheel hop

Congrats, Chris. Your car is very strong!
I'm so damn jealous of you guys right njow. You are all enjoying your fast cars in H-town and I'm stuck in a 3rd world country.
Any good Mexico stories? I'm particularly curious to hear how Jamie's Z was doing. I imagine very well.
