    After last years TOTAL run of bad luck I now have a solid running Maverick!



    I was with Killercomet on Memorial Day Weekend at Mason-Dixon Dragway,

    my car ran 10.23 @ 129 MPH (out of the box) with a 1.37 sixty foot time and yes the tires are off the ground with those 60 footers.



    I think I have most of the bugs worked out and as soon as I can get some pixs I’ll post them.



    Good luck to all you of us drag racing.:bouncy:
