Did some rewiring on the red pig this weekend. Got my Griner brake wired up, line-lock installed and wired to the brake, moved the 2 step to the brake wiring, and have the nitrous on the throttle switch now, and hooked into a relay so that it turns off when the brake is on.

Wanted to go to 41 this weekend and test, but it has been raining since Thursday. :cry:

I am moving up to Pro Saturday at the next RT66 points race, and IF all goes well, I will toss in the big joos jets and try to jump to S/Pro on Sunday. :D

IF this thing doesn't toss some parts on the ground launching on the brake with spray. :shock:

Well, made it through Day 1 with the brake. Car really jumps off the line now. I am leaving at 3600 on the brake. With only a 75 shot the car went 12:61@104. I got whacked 1st round of Pro when the car didn't run the number I dialed. I think I may have been a little optomistic. :roll:

Tomorrow I am gonna put in the 150 jets and try to get into Super/Pro. I have to run 11:99 or quicker. I think that's in the bag. :shock:

Thank Mike, and don't even try to kid yourself. A 50 shot won't be enough for more than 2 passes. :twisted: :lol: :shock:
