Cool Chike's 4.44 N/A record falls

I went to dragway 42 today and ended up with some impressive times. I ran 14.94@92.63 MPH and the next one I ran was 14.97@92.21. I also ran a series of 15.0 and 15.1 times all in the 91 MPH range. I'll post up the timeslip and video of the run before the night is through.

Good luck man. I could have easily hit 14.7 or lower by taking off the belts, But my battery sucks and I didn't want to press my luck. Hopefully by spring I'll be running 13's if all goes well.

Congrats Jason! Just to be clear, what level of weight reduction did you do to the car?

Jason,
Nice! What was the temperature at the track? Did you just run the car in "D"? Powerblock to 2500 rpms?

Thanks Bill. Temp at the track was about 45 degrees. Yeah, I ran in "D" on some runs and 3rd in some others and there is no difference. I powerblocked it to 2,600 RPM. So does this make me the fastest N/A 4EAT in the country? World???

Next year should be interesting, between you, Bill and others. You are running stock cams, correct?

I'm gonna go get a freaking sticker for that thing just to shut you boys up.

Nice Bud, still quite a bit to go for the 4.11 record.
