Thanks Lou!
Low 8's are no joke with a slant six.

I think I need to move the ladder bars, it never went that right before,
Is it possible there was something on the track that caused a lack of traction on the right? You don't have 32# of air on that side do you! :D :D

I think it was prepped.
18 in the Left, 20 in the right slick.
If you look at the hook, it hooked.
Then it drove right, you can see the tire tracks.
I will take some of the blame, my head is a ways from the head rest.
I was not expecting the hook and it took me a bit to react.
But I was expecting it to go kinda straight.
But with no bog it just went.

I will hit the 7s in a street-driven Slant car before I am done, with boost of course so you can call me a cheater...

Keep on it. I remember clearly watching Charles Myers car take a hard turn about 40 ft out. Scared everyone, especially him. Might be worth calling him to see if he remembers how/if they fixed it. Bet he would be excited about your car!
