Yeah, ended the season with an 8.87 @ 160.77.
I found video of it, just need to edit it down.

I use a transbrake for the purpose of holding the car at the line without loading the suspension. I launch the car at about 2000 rpm and then feed it throttle as it starts to hook.
with a 427 and F2 that thing is capable of 7's. I'm thinking of changing my F1 R to a F2. Are you using a standalone(FAST,BIG STUFF)?
Well, that is true and not true. The engine combination is, but the car it is sitting in isn't. I sacrifice a lot of ET by running it on the 17's and keeping it a street car. It is an AOD transmission in a car that weighed 3700 lbs the day of the race. Full interior, steel hood, full stereo, no real weight removed.

Just in case anyone was wondering, the 8.97 was run on 17 inch mickey thompson drag radials. Aaaaand, I drove the car to and from the track. I got lazy and left the chute on the car for the drive home though.
I want a ride in that beast dude. Did you use all of that trans fluid? I've been working on the cobra quite a bit in the garage. You should stop by some time since you live close to me
since this is brought back from the dead i must badass fox. that video was insane i thought you were about to half track that supra.......but damn was that thing fast as shit. awesome race.....
