Good news,...........bad news...................

Good news first...........I FINALLY GOT MY NINE, I FINALLY GOT MY NINE..............(did I mention I ran a 9 today?)[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img][img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img][img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]
Bad news.........on follow up pass, broke the trans.........Don't know what went poochie, but later in the week I"ll yank it, and find out.
Looks like my next weekend 2 day event in Iowa is a no-go, (at this point).

(DID I MENTION I RAN A 9?)
It was a 9.998 @ 134.71, with a 1.44 60 foot. All previous runs were 10.03-10.05-10.06. [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Righteous. I could see the win light in 'the other guy's lane, so I knew I either ran real slow, or broke out. Being as the car was running 10.0's from the gitgo this morning, the lack of a thousandth or two didn't seem huge. I did know it pulled really hard thru 2nd that I noticed. (the comparing of all the years numbers proved that to me upon later number crunching).
Now I just gotta yank the trans and figure out what went kapow..............[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]

Damn! Glad there's another in the 9's! I feel your pain on the trans. I went a 10.09 &amp; thought I'd squeeze it, the old PA C-4 has no second now. The price of going fast huh[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
