If he backs off again, im gonna kick him out and drive myself. But ill bring my own helmet, i dont trust that 1970 style stack hat :P
On a serious note, just watched the video. you need 90/10s man. look at the way the back bounces when you launch. my car used to do that untill i put 90/10s in. makes a difference!!!!

He ran an 11.5 but when he put that stack hat on he went 10.8. must have been the weight reduction from his fat head! LOL

Definately much more left in it, the launch was pretty crap and sounded like you had some traction issues.
Ide say a 10.4 once you iron out a few issues and get it to hook up well!
Come on Petros, you know you want to to keep it together and run a lower personal best
