Patrick Batacan new PB 9.825@ 141.947
I'll try and give the condensed version to not bore anyone and if you want i'll link the entire thread from our local forum for those that have time to read a novel
Anyway the car i now 100% fully NHRA legal as i completed all the necessary passes to get my NHRA license (no more hasseling me at the track woohoo)!
After that i had to try and back up the 9.90 @ 146.5 from last year after having many issues this year and limited track outtings.
I ended up making over 11 passes on Sat and the car didn't give me 1 issue .............that is besides the driver mod
As you can see it kept running bottom 10's and even had a 10.008 on one pass so i knew i couldn't leave w/o a 9 sec slip in my hand so we thrashed and made 1 last pass before the track closed at 4pm (3:57pm to be exact)

I was able to weigh the car w/ me in it, a 1/4 tank of E85, and all the saftey equipment in place = 3080lbs - 175 (me) = 2905
I want to thank my sponsors and those who have helped out with the car as w/o them i'd be no where :clapping:
- FFTEC MOTORSPORTS
- SPARKTECH IGNITION SYSTEMS
- FUEL INJECTOR CLINIC
- PRECISION TURBOS
- QUARTERMASTER CLUTCHES
Although AWD Motorsports is not a sponsor i would like to give my thanks to Mike from AWD for the D2's ( i finally got those suckers dialed in pretty good )
And for anyone that would like there is more info about the day as well as more pics on our local forum:
