Funnest thing ever, so smooth!..."Outlaw ll" was a blast as well.
They both ran 47mph...so we took the funny car home, switched to a High Voltage 2S, soldiered on bigger wires 13g (only had 16 ga on it at 47)...and it picked up 10mph...gonna gear up two teeth, hit 60mph, call it done!

Last run was 59 MPH. We made a couple of adjustments to hit 61.

Put some grape soda down on a sunny day, let’s see those launches.

I’ll always remember reading about the grape soda trick from many years ago in RCCA magazine.
