Holy shit that Tom Pro rips!
No Jeffco back there lol I think I'm going to stop at 15psi on this setup to keep it together (hopefully!)
Damn good trip and awesome to drive the car again, some setup quirks to iron out but fueling nicely up to and on the gate @ 6-7psi, now to work on the "turn key" stuff. I notice no loss of low end with the 9.5.1  compression and take off is just as good as it used to be with the counterbalance removed, I think it is going to run pretty good cranked up a little more.
Brian's is going to be a rocket tank wheelie machine when it is cranked up, 14 psi so far and grunts nicely on the low end..He ALMOST needed a new wing!! I envision a bat-shit crazy car @ 30psi.. holy shit..
 Lots of turn-key stuff to iron out on it as well, cold start corn fuel can be a real pain in the ass!
Great time as always and awesome to chase after Fast as usual! I do have to give him the "pout award" when a Brute jumped in front of his lasso attempts to tow brians car. Brain threatened me if I didn't hook up before him... Sorry Fast,    ..something about NEVER signing your tow rope?..?..

Missed all ya all that couldn't make this one! Hope for one for the record books this spring!

If I believe I cannot do something it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe that I can, then I acquire the ability to do it , even if I didn't have it at the beginning.

we didn't ....doug " borrowed " it to go pull jack out. i guess he didn't hear me as i said i'll grab mine.    i would gladly ask you to pull me off the sand if i was broke down and would sign the rope.......i draw the line at signing the rope because my motor flooded and i had to be pull started!!  ;D ;D ;) ;) ;) LMAO LMAO   had to pull start it every morning in fact and the brute did just fine.  will have to figure that one out. once it started it was fine the rest of the day as long as you didn't let it get cold. i burned 18 gals in 3 days down there.

OK, on videos, looks like we need to use the share link generated via you tube.  Down at share video section.

when you watch the video...-pay attention to the gear position display on enemy's dash. he shifts 6th gear and said he was at 6 psi boost and 25% throttle roughly. we were going faster than i thought.
