Oh shit you finally did it! Congrats Dave!!

If you're referring to running 9's - he actually did it a month or two ago. He probably has three or four 9 second passes

9.71.....Awesome run.... Great to see that supra evolve over the years.. I do have to add that Ethans hottest run was a 9.69... Sooooo I guess I have to be that guy to say I am still winning the bet.... :lol: Mr. Fawl, you still savin up? :twisted:

Hopefully MN Mayhem doesn't care about the rules and I can let it rip and see if I can pass Ethans mark. The 9.71 was my first pass, low boost and spraying 3/4 of the track. After that I adjusted the spray to try to slow it down so Tim the tech guy didn't throw my butt off the track. I still ran a 9.88 the next pass, whoops :shock:

Oh, he WILL pass the bike.(If an NHRA track ever lets him run again) Now once the bike is done, then the fun will begin. Hopefully by MAYHEM, but no guarantees.

I'm glad there is such a friendly rivalry between you two. I just hope I actually make it to the track the next time the both of you run head to head, should be a great race...good luck to both of you.

[DaveH]

A nice side by side race at Mayhem would be fun. Hopefully there isn't anyone there really enforcing the rules.

I like rules and I feel they should be enforced.

I was there to witness the glory of the first official 9 second run. Got it recorded, too.

[DaveH]

Hey Eric, can I borrow that tape? I'd like to get a wmv made with the view from the stands.

[probe this]

Dave I got you the other view when are you going to post it?

[DaveH]

Ask a ye shall receive:

Big thanks to probe this for borrowing me the video.

Heh....nice run. Autos rule..... I had a local MkIV guy in Jacksonville, NC that dyno'd over 800hp to the wheels. But his best pass was a 10.8x at 138mph. Some people just can't drive I guess. Always got his butt whooped by the local DSMs. But it was a damn nice car though....I would've given my left nut for it.
