That was very cool!  Just out of curiosity what does it run in the 1/4?

Wow that must be quite the rush. Forgive my ignorance, but did you build it yourself?

Hmmm. That looks like it's worth an 8 hour drive to experience a rush like that.     ;)

Thanks, Jimi! Not to bad on the wallet, selfdestroyer. Been doing this for nearly 30 years. She runs high 5.90's in the 1/8 mile. Calculates to low 9's in the 1/4,Matt. Yes, dogg, built her myself. Come on over, haveyouseenhim! I'll strap you into 'er!!

It is pedal related... The skinny pedal on the right gets her down the track.  Its a different type of stomp. ..more of a 'romp on it'.

Awesome stuff. Goes by really quickly though, had to watch it a few times for the experience.
