Re: DOC HOOVER update

I noticed your 1/4 MPH hasn't gone up portionately to the 1/8 mph, I would have expect little better MPH. Are you running out of Gear/RPM?

The 9.57 had A 117.3 mph 1/8 with 146mph trap speeds, this run had 122mph and 150mph. Basically your 1/8 mph went up 4.5 mph but the 1/4 trap speed went up 4mph.

Re: DOC HOOVER update

thanks to everybody! we only got to make 1 run last nite bc i think i messed up something in the trannyor possibly the converter. we didnt want to take any chances so we loaded her up and went home.

the truck felt real good through the whole run, didnt miss a lick! went through the lights at 7950 rpms. im POSITIVE we would have ran an 8.9X last nite for several reasons but we want to know whats wrong b4 we try it again. maybe in a week or so we'll have her fixed and try again!

but i want to see this video i cannot wait till get home so that if it is up i will be able to hear it also(no speakers here at work) but just imagine the rush it would give you just to ride in it.

Re: DOC HOOVER update

You guys just keep getting faster and faster. Way to go, Matt. I would love to see you run, all of us should have went to Bristol again this year.

Seems like yesterday (actually it was 2003) that you were competing with Les and running low 10's. 8's won't be far away, so I guess that means you will be running 7's in 06 :tup:

By the way...... any chance your dad needs another son? My Sy could use some of those improvements
