Yeah boys and girls temper ran 9.8 twice in a row tonight at 145mph. long awaited and well deserved, the first 9 second pass for the car in years!! Not a record yet, still got a couple of small problems to iron out and decide what size tyre to run and she will be back soon for the record. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

well done!

Excuse my ignorance, but what record? going by MPH, could it be manual trans?

I believe it is the 9.5@150 record set by WHONXT a few years back for quickest manual vl??

glad to hear that the car is back best of luck chasing down the record, no reason it cant be done Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Awesome to hear. Who is driving the car this time?

Well done Ben...car sounds so strong...animal on the gear changes, he was getting chucked around in the car pretty hard every shift. Was getting very skatey in the top end of the track too.. We have in-car footage from every run and 3 different camera angles from the outside....I'll hassle the boys to get the video up ASAP.
