Congrats bill!
Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
Torque is how far you take the wall with you -
Congrats Bill!

Thanx again all. Just walked in the door 5 minutes ago.
Nothing broke, got 4 passes in before the rain. 2nd and 4th passes had boost issues. Boost wasn't coming in till 1/2 track, ran a 9.7X on both of those runs. Would have been nice to get one more pass in. Track was hooking for me the whole way. I'll have to look at vids to see what my boost was. Had about 23-25 programmed into it in 2nd and 3rd. 8 lbs on the launch.
One car got real ugly. Almost hit the wall. I may have part video of it, I was 2 cars back with the camera on. Someone else may have it too. I'll post it if I find/get it.

From the guy that almost crashed.
Yea I didn't know what to think when the car was coming around on me, when I was heading for the wall I turned the wheel left and gave it some gas to whip it back to the left it obviously worked. I'm going to tear the head off the car tonight to see what the hell happened. when I got back to the pits I cleaned out my sharted shorts and calmed my nerves. Later on when I pulled the wheels off the car chris w noticed water running down the block in the back of the head on the pass side. It was really gushing out when I put it on the brake and made boost there may be a crack in the head. All in all I had a good time but wish I would have made a clean pass. I was a little pissed when I saw the vert run a 8.98 fastest pass of the day, I knew I had that covered but o whell. Theres always next year. I just want to say thanks to all the people that helped me out for this event I couldn't of done it with out you.

That was a 4,000 rpm launch with about 8 psi. I wanted to put imore boost into it on the launch that day as the track was really good. We got rained out by 1:00. I figured if I can add more boost into 2nd and 3rd my mph should be 162-164. ET maybe drop a .15 If I could actually launch this thing hard it would be about 8.3X
The 8.98 pass if I could apply the power out of the hole would be about 8.6X
Another video someone sent me.
