Default Made it in the 9s

Made a bunch of nice passes at Cordova for Bop event saturday. Had some really nice air enough for me to break in the 9s finally. It was a nice end to this season. I had some surgury that kept me home from work for about a month this summer, so it was nice to end on a positive note. Met Darby and a few others on top of that.

Ran a 9.97, 98 and a 99 in my old gasser.

517 ia2
380 High ports, conservative cam - 276/278 .440 lobe
3.73 Dana 60, 28 11.50 mt slicks.

Very consistent runs and quick. Great job. Always liked running at Cordova. Did you notice if Arnie Beswick and his little group were at this event? Haven't seen him since Norwalk. Thanks.

Thanks everyone. I have a few changes over the winter id like to try.
my 110 went from 5.99 to 8.50 so going to try an e85 Dominator on it.

I'm considering a cam chance and have a few choices.
280/288 on a 110 .440 lobe
279/287 on 110.5 .451 lobe
274/284 on a 109 , .750 lift
276/282 on a 112, .465/.455

Not sure how each one would react differently.
