After a long time of trial and error, the Talon finally made a 9 second pass at Great Lakes Dragway on Oct 27th. The car ran a 9.96@143 off the trailer pulling through the brakes. I had a 50 shot nitrous hooked up. The bottle was at only 650 psi. The second pass it pulled through the brakes again and the headgasket let go around the 1000ft mark. It ran a 9.85@137. This would have been a 9.50 if there were no issues. It trapped at 117 in the 1/8th both times. I was very happy. Jake and I packet it up and drove home. It was a good way to end the year.
Here is a video compilation of it showing the 9.85 and a bunch of other passes.
