It is great to see you in the 1/4 finals André, & with what is looking like a free run into the semi's with the oposition breaking.
It's a shame that Santa Pod is an uphill drag strip other wise the times would be better still.
Who would make an uphill drag strip LOL

great run buddy! and yes those cases break even if no one has messed with them. its a material issue.. the teeth bust off.

Well, I just got back and I got through to the semi finals and came 3rd in the class. I didnt manage to improve on my time due to gear selection issues but the dog box goes in this week anyway.

Had the same crappy second hand tc in all weekend. Ran it on the R888s at 29 psi and 25 psi as well as the Mickey Thompson ET Streets (26/11.5/17) run at 17 psi and 15 psi.

Even launched on the MTs cutting a 1.5 60' despite missing 2nd! Not a hint of breaking, whining, nothing! Used parts ftw!

Btw, I gave up limiting the boost after the 1st run and just ran the full amount for the next 9 passes.

nice runs! what are your goals for this thing andre? just a 9 sec daily driver o what?

[Permanent grin]

Ultimately a 9 second dd that can run 8s when competing (but there's a long road ahead for that one)

sounds good. of course the setup is good for 8s, and it looks like 9s and just right around the block for you.

[Permanent grin]

When I ran the10.35 it was with a 1.8 60', the 1.5' 60' without missing gears would without doubt have gone 9s.

Also the MTs actually felt kinder to the transmission than the R888s
