Grossi's 9.147 actually corrects to a 8.925 (.9757 is the factor to convert to sea level). Anyone know what mph he ran? That is crazy fast.

I think we now know who has the baddest SS/IA car in the land.
Both cars at the same track same day.
Mopar rules this trip.

Franks car is getting faster all the time. Must have had some weight in at the national event. Very impressive to say the least. They are probably shaking there heads because of the potential left. Congrats to all partys involved.

Talking Re: Live from Las Vegas -- NHRA LucasOil Series

Ok guys let me rephrase because I definently don't want to take anything away from you guys because I know what expense it takes to run fast and I don't want to slight that. This factoring thing has been around longer than I have years in this earth probably, it just pains me that a car can blow a record out of the water at a factored track and then if they were at sea level can't come within .15 or .20 to it, I think. Judging by some comments made in here about Grossi's car his might be one who could run 1.50 under at sea level. That would impress the hell out of me.
Anyways I will quit sipping on the haterade and congratulate the guys who going fast, I just wish mine was a 1/3 as fast as some of you are.

I don't remember him having the "baddest" SS\IA car when he came to Indy. Same track, same day.

Good Morning -- 7:05 and Superstreet is out on the track for first round -- already an oildown -- no wind this morning -- yippee -- not sure how to dial for it . Stock has been bumped to after S/Comp --they are next -- all 180 of 'em .Not sure who is running who in Stock as they don't have a ladder yet -- but I'm told that they added cars who didn't make a run to the bottom -- hmmmmm .I'll post any further info as I get it .

Johnny D -- no problem -- post pics -- I'm OK with it as I'm having trouble myself -- your welcome anytime ! ! ! Not to mention you're a much better camera man than I'll ever be .

Wanted to stay and watch the final S/S session last night but it was getting late and Debbie had show tickets -- sometimes you have to pick what's really important ...........nuff said ! ! later

Almost forgot -- my weather station is showing stuff I've never seen-- how about a barometer of 27.96 -- DA --2599 -- rest of the stuff pretty normal -- 58.6 degrees -- 36 % humidity -- .18 vapor pressure .
