Well..as you know I have been working on my Cenpen for over 2 years so finally last night we made it to the track--Test night. Waited in stage lanes over an hour while track electric issues were solved and tree was working--
Looked back in the pits and there were near 150 cars so we decided we may only get this one run--
I let her rip--very first pass--No testing in drive way, pits or anywhere--went from shop to trailer to staging--Prayed  and.........
5.68 120 MPH  1.24 60 ft
Yahooo!!!
It was WAY wilder than I ever imagined!
She went right down Broadway straight as a shot--I was way late on my shift but other than that a killer pass.
Boys with projects..Keep working--there is nothing like it anywhere!

That's awesome, Dave.  I got my first pass in the FED  this week, (not as fast as your's!) and I feel the same way!  there is nothing like it!

dusterdave173:
Congrats to you! I had all these plans do a 60 ft or two but the burnout went smooth and when I left it was straight and not making any moves except hauling--was over before I could decide anything--smooth as silk--I got very lucky.
Can't wait for more!!!!!!

Nightmare AA/FA:
Very cool.  Hard work pays off.
