Yeah took it for a squirt the other week, track had just had the first 100ft layed in concrete, no rubber , green concrete. (Enough excuses) end up running a best time for the night of 12.2 with a 2.5 60ft time and 123.4mph. the other 3 runs wern't too spectactular other than the 122-123 mph.

Never ran a 60 ft faster than 2.47 but everyrun was over 122mph. So lots of room to improve the 60ft's and maybe a little more MPH (if the weather stays cool for the next Test and tune)

Well, went back out to the strip last night. It was a bitter sweet affair with the phoon running a PB of 11.4@123mph, then on the last run trying to better that time I managed to twist the front half of the tail shaft blow the center bearing and uterly destroy the tail shaft uni.

enjoy the pics.

OUCH !!!

Seems to happen a lot with these cars when using an auto. They usually just snap with a manual haha

Poor bastard but 11.4 is still a nice time sure to only get better.

Nasty! Here's hoping you budgeted for that kind of thing

we'll see when the repair bill comes I guess.

Sounds like you need to visit ...

Let me know how much $$$ for an upgraded driveshaft for I'd best replace mine with a stronger item before this happens to me!

well, end up just getting a new factory Ford tail shaft and stop using the hand brake to lauch the car at the drags.

Did they replace your spark plugs for the tune? If they did what ones did they use?

Nah, used the factory plugs gapped down to 0.7mm
