I think if I'd gotten one or 2 more runs in last night, I would have pulled a low 11 (with a 2.0'ish 60' time). But to consistently do 10's (1.7-1.8 60'), or to be able to utilize more boost, I'll definitely need my DRs.
sweet mph Scott.

This might be a stupid question but do you leave off a two step to build boost? If not that cars seriously fast and with a two step you would pick up some mph. Turbo cars are known for being back half monsters.

I'll pick up mph with DR's on, even at the same boost. I just need to get the power down better early on.

That's awesome man. Aren't you happy the car is built? Gives you some peace of mind when turning u the wick. Did you get head-work while you were at it?
I can't even imagine 1.6 BAR! My car runs 1.3 with 1.4 spikes now and then.

I was going over the time-slips for my last P-car at different stages of power, and I think I now know pretty much where this car will fall out with some Drag Radials at 1.8 BAR. I won't say exactly what I suspect it will do, I'll just leave it as 10.XX @ 14X.XX.
Hopefully I'll get a chance to find out next month.

This is similar to Atomic P (Atomic Z's GT2);
I believe in Texas it ran 10.8X @ 143 mph ! (dont know boost though?)
