Default well i did it, new best 10 second runs

well i got into the 10's today, went to bryon and the first run went like this,1.531 60ft, 1/8 100.23 @6.913, and 10.849 @125.67, second run went 1.547 60ft, 10.872 @ 125.93, so not to bad for alittle 112 maggie and only 7 1/2 pounds of boost, would of run a few more but had some things to do today so i just put about 8 more pounds of air in the rear tires and drove home with a 25 mpg average, got to love these vettes. Matt.

Great job MATT, way to go getting your 10 second time slips and backing it up on your Maggie Powered show and go Roadster! You have worked very hard and been persistent to achieve this impressive milestone and the nice 56 degee fall air was just what the doctor ordered to put you over the hump. You honestly are one of the very few maggie cars running in the high 10s and very low 11s consistently without any other power adders (which is VERY IMPRESSIVE to say the least)!

Congrats Buddy! You've been chasing those numbers for a while now. Must feel really good to catch them.
What's next chief, 10.5?

Great news. Very cool

i would like to thank mitch and dan for dealing with my car as many times as you have over the years, FLP is the place, and dan is the man, we still need to find the other 2 1/2 #s of boost as the gauge is still peged at 7 1/2, but i did go with a different air filter, same design as the blackwing but about 5 "s bigger, and ditched the shroud, as dan and JR, have mentioned in the past, and by the way JR was there and seen it all, and i watched his beast rip off a few 1.3 60 ft and high 9s
