Hi Kat, Faye here. Congratulations to both of you on your runs! That is awesome. I could probably spare a couple mph if you need to borrow some:D I could even deliver if needed;) as long as I don't have to bring back pennies.:rofl:

Thanks. Faye :hug: But I would have to send pennies back it's tradaton
:spit:

As much as I can't believe I'm saying this I want Pat, Robert and Johnny to find out Casper issue and try make another Pass At
El Mirage to try for a "Brown Hat". Which is the equivkent to a Red hat:eek:

Yes it is. To be honest I won't be able to drag race any way for the next couple of months I have soccer and softball starting for the kids and there are no local tracks anymore :(

Dang I make a lot of typo's on my I-Phone :eek: :rofl:

I'm to tired to fix them. We head home first thing tomorrow morning.

Besides maybe it will be easier to talk Pat into driving to TX. We had some smack talking going on in the pits today. Something about Project X think they are faster then a Girl driving a ghost :dontknow: You reading this James :poke:

It accelerates HARD at 175mph, and the datalog shows we just crested 200mph shortly after the 2.25 mile beams, but at 2.75 miles, BANG!!! All power fell to zero, so I dropped the chute and popped it into neutral and coasted to a 193mph average into the emergency area.


PS - Going 197mph+ in a pickup is a freakin' rush. :joker:

If anyone hasn't ever heard a boot blow under high boost I promise you it will make you s#@! your pants! Congrats guys and gals. Hope you get it fixed to go get the 200. Good job.

If you loose a boot at all under boost it triggers the clench reflex.:rofl: I lost one on my old Cummins at 35 and thought my butt was eating the seat.:rofl:

:stupid::D

Amazing job by all. I have met some of the people involved personally and they are all stand up folks. I don't think it would have been possible to have gotten a better team together.

Hats Off!!

OK got it off the corrupted SD Card. Not the best quality but it's all I got. You can shut it off at 3:54 the rest is junk.
