Well I guess it finally had to happen and just when I was on a roll I was warned not to run again without a roll cage

So when you going to get one?? A roll bar might knock you back into the 12s.

Cherry Bomb; How do you like the Orlando track? Does it hook up better than Desoto?

Hey thanks guys. Ill be installing a cage this winter. Gotta get ready for the new motor and BIGGER n2o shot

Sparky Orlando Speedworld hooks MUCH beter than Desoto. They prep the track every time before the Super Pro lanes run (12.99 and under) so hooking is usually not a problem. I see a lot of street tires getting 2.0s 60 times. Last night a bunch of cars ran in the 8s and 9s. My buddy Jack pulled a 2.01 on his street tires in his 2000 Camaro SS along the way to a 13.1 with only an intake lid and catback exhaust!

Dont forget any NHRA sanctioned track will require a Fire Jacket as well. (11.99s or lower)
