He represented the community very well, and everyone was more then surprised. I will have videos and pictures up later on tonight or in the morning!
Hey kdub, I'm honored that you came out to support man. It means alot, and thanks for all the videos and pictures! Wish I could have hung out a little more. Did you happen to get my 159 pass with the STI that jumped me hard?

Its real tough to tell in the video on my phone did he stay out in front of the Supra and did the trap higher? I know it made over 600 on the dyno but did he have it set to full kill mode that day
Hey LNFTX, thanks a lot bro. I'm out to just show people what the cars can do, and hopefully surprise them. At this event...I DEFINITELY surprised some people. :lo:

Actually the car was only on 30psi this time around. Not quite on kill mode.

Not quite on kill mode. Just moderate to see what it could do. I REALLY felt that my last run was a 160+ mph trap...but for the 3rd time in my life I missed 3rd gear.

Hey, thanks Rice! I MAY be up there today. Not sure. Going to see if it clears up first. I'm actually not too far from the airport anyway.

Next time you're coming with me and we can surprise people with TWO!

haha, thanks man. That's actually my boy and his car isn't exactly right. But even when it was right I'm a tad faster. The supra makes 700.

Yea it was just a guy that had his super-leggera built by UGR. Has their 1500 kit on it but only tuned to 1250 until they can get the clutch in. Super cool guy, car went 199. It was very cold, I left around 2. Uploading some pictures soon!

That's really sick bro, you were having a good time I can tell. At least you can represent the cobalt in the half mile in the east while I'm doing it here in the west lol. I was trapping like 145-150 in the 1/2 mile with my ZFR, just shows how much bigger your turbo is than mine with your 160 traps.

Was Weistec there?

That wasn't the Performance Autowerks Crossfire. lol. This one was running good though. i missed a gear and came flying passed him trapping 155 still. lol. That was my 'wouldbe 160+ pass' I was trapping higher than the werks SRT-6 though. but a decent amount.

Okay. 147-150 traps. I was a bit faster

Yea I'm not expecting to be competitive against any of those guys lol. I'm just your standard full bolt on's and a tune...for now. I figured it would be a great chance to get some more experience.
Thanks and good luck to you as well! I look forward to seeing some great highlight videos of your runs.
