MAPerformance steps into the 9's @ 148mph

Awesome times! I would think you can get into mid 9's, but perhaps next time. What's the next event?

Kick ass guys, gratz! Let us know when you guys are heading out next time! It might get my ass to come too :D

The next event will be the shootout and hopefully we will have two 9 second cars ;)

You guys heading out this year?

COngrats guys, big props! How did you like the Track? I hope thiey still do a solid job of prep.

The track is completely concrete and track prep was second to none. I don't recall a car spinning the tires all day. I think we may have found a new home as even though it is a 4 hour drive it was completely worth it.

I agree on the track. That is where I ran 12's in my GTP. It hooked so good it made my car seem underpowered at first because it actually hooked itstead of spinning.

On the other hand I can see how it would make a car break really easily if it wasn't setup for hard launching. Like I said in the other thread; the street tires at Rock Falls was probably the only thing saving that car from breaking.

Either way 9's is 9's and its a great accomplisment.

Congrats. I am envious and sad and happy for you (Tri polar eh?).

Congradulations fellas!

That's flipping awesome! Anything in the 9's is a major accomplishment. Did you guys install the legal cage for it yet? I'm surprised they didn't kick you out, but then again, it is Iowa.:nod:

It has the competition engineering cage in it which is not legal for 9's. We also need an NHRA competition license for Kyle, a neck brace, driveshaft loop, and we're only 1mph away from needing a parachute lol.

How's it feel to be #2 on the Fastest DSMLink cars of 2007 list ? ;)

[v8klla]

Well we would like to be #1, but considering the current leader is a tube chassis car running methanol on some built ass auto trans I would say we are pretty content with #2 :)

Oh, but we will be giving him a run for his money in regards to mph, we can get around that 156mph ;)
