Default Ran another PB today 9.8 @ 142 vid inside

I took the car to the track today and made 3 passes all of them I had to let out on the big end due to being pulled out of the groove and starting to drift into the other lane. It was really windy so that didn't help either. I was 100% in it until a little past the 1/8th and was 75% from then on and still ran a 9.8 @142

60ft: 1.568
1/8th 6.4
mph: 114.68
1/4: 9.8
mph: 142.75

Here is the video

By the way if anybody cares or wants a cheap drag pack. I bought the 2 front gto spares and used a 2.5'' adaptor to bring the wheels out and flush with the fenders. I put a set of M&H front runner skinnes in 17'' on them. I then took 2 16'' factory 5 spoke trans am wheels for the rear and I run some 26x10.5x16 MT ET streets aired to 15psi. I took all of them and then painted them flat black....you know, to look cool and everything.

that sound you hear is a small backfire where the car didn't make the next gear change fast enough and revved to 6700 instead of shifting at 6400. I have gone back and dropped the shift point down 200rpm to fix that.
