Here is the time slip from my 6th and final run obtaining my NHRA Competition License at the recent NHRA March Meet at Famoso (Bakersfield) CA.
Also shown is a picture of the car on the official NHRA certified scales at the same meet showing 3035lbs (with no driver but with 10 gallons of fuel in the cell).'
Like I posted previously the chassis of my car was not set up yet for transbrake launches at 5500rpm. This time slip was launching the car off the footbrake at 1500rpm idle. Should be quite a bit better with the transbrake but that is for a different day.
