Here is the timeslip:

We also ran a 9.38 @ 139 in qualifying. And ran a 9.66 @ 143 no nos (record for non nitrous). Redlighted to Albert in elims, thats racing.

The car was hitting the rev limiter at 1000 ft. thats why the mph is low. I compared the timeslips of the 9.28 and 9.38 runs to other slips i have from our 9.52 @ 156 car and i probably lost .07 sec due to hitting the limiter. So we will take care of that and go back to the track soon. Everybody thinks there is more in their car and so do we.

OK, i got a lot of people to thank for their help:

Thanks to the owner of the car, Terry Ruot (Charter Plastics) allowing me to build him the quickest V10 Viper in the world.

Thanks to my guys in the shop, Nick and Alan, not bad for a couple of welders. Thanks to Victor and Jose for your help too.

Thanks to Dr. Roof for putting on a nice event.

Thanks to Albert for your help.

Thanks to Mike Adams for your help.

Thanks to Norm WYD Koerner for your help and encourangement.

Thanks Larry for my M2 shirt!

Thanks to Mark and Scott for helping us test at the Supra event.

Thanks to Kyle Kent / HOS for his help with the video.

I dont really have anything to thank Rohn Kittel about, but I had a good time talking to him at the drags and hes a good guy. So thanks for being cool Rohn!

Thanks to Prashant and the other tuner / competitors for "manning-up" and letting us run in unlimited.

Thanks to the former "Homes of the World's Quickest Vipers" for giving me the motivation to show you who has the fastest Viper.

Last, thanks to my great wife and children for putting up with me and allowing me to feed my need for speed.

So Mike... let me know when your taking your Roe Supercharger off and going turbo. Since I bought your old VEC-1, I might as well buy the supercharger too and keep up my collection of ex-Mike Adams parts ;-)

Leave no doubt, put the 6 speed back in and hold both records. Quickest and fastest auto trans and quickest and fastest 6 speed.

I did enjoy the last run and the victory lap.

Rohn, our primary goal with the TT glide car was to get the lowest ET we could for the customer. We think there is a 9.1x in it before it goes back to the owner in the next few weeks. So the 6-speed number may have to come later.

Either way great run, a number to shot for and a number that will stand for some time. But you best not rest, I ordered my auto trans yesterday plus a jet after buner. LOL
