well it was cool meeting everyone, mel , rob, and sycho. Well Ill give ya a run down on my runs. First lets just start calling me captain slow.... I even went around the burnout box the first run and backed up alittle to clean the tires and forgot i had in reverse and stomped on her:rotf::rotf::rotf: a little embarrasing but funny to say the least

run #1
r/t .113
60. 2.06
330 5.7
1/8 8.9
mph 75.4
1/4 14.23 :rotf:
mph 90.4
#2

r/t .070
60. 1.9
330 5.4
1/8 8.5
mph 80.6
1/4 13.4
mph 100.6

#3
r/t .224
60. 1.9
330 5.4
1/8 8.4
mph 81.4
1/4 13.3
mph 100.8

They eventually made us race the 1/8 because of the wind. It was a steady 30mph headwind. I gotta figure out how the previous owners were runnin high 7's in the 8th. I did have alot of people in the staging lane ask me if it was a real typhoon, what the heck was it, and did it have a 350 in it!:rotf:

13.3 1/4th mile run with a 1.9 60ft is not to shabby. Personally I think you could really improve your launch. Typhoons should be getting at least 1.7-1.6 60". If you can nail a good launch down, for example improving your 60" to a 1.6 60" on your best run your looking at a 12.7 1/4th mile run. For every tenth you knock off your 60" time you will knock off two tenths off your 1/4th run.

It was great meeting all you guys on Sunday, too bad the weather didn't fully cooperate.

Re: delmar results

Tom,
just saw this and as others have said the 60' times is where the biggest difference would've come from. I was runnin nitto 555r's all the way round so it hooked up pretty good, 1.65's.
I was also running the dump open and cooling the truck off real good and running race fuel with a little extra boost.
I know all this does ya no good now since its broke but just some good info for when you get er back together.
