No Unicorns. Any Demon properly set up will run 9's. On Sunday at the Legions Private EVERY Demon there ran a 9. I think like 35-38 Cars.
The Lady you are talking about was most like Catherine. She is top notch and her car is set up properly for absolute sure. SHe is one of the fastest Demons out there.
I ran 9.71X 4 times in Houston all on the same day, so no fluke. I actually beat Dodge's incrementals to the 330 foot (see time slip), but then I ran out of gas. Jim wilder told me that he did that several times during development and trying to set the record. I had a 19MPH head wind and I needed 4 more pounds of fuel. So without the head wind I would have EASILY been sub 9.65. But my car has aftermarket wheels and a lighter battery. I will say that my body weight offsets much of the weight reduction compared to Leah. Now I have even lighter wheels and better fuel (I think).
I will say I have 100% stock powertrain and tune. ANYTHING that has to do with Power is factory stock (but well prepared).But I have no interest in running factory wheels to be pure factory stock. No normal Challenger, Mustang or Camaro ever runs factory stock wheels and tires at the Drag strip and puts up a good number. So there is no way I am going to do that to try and prove anything. In fact I will be runing a SMALLER rear tire than stock this January.
Here is an example of what the wind did to us and the potential of my Car. In the morning with 19 mph head wind I ran 9.715 at about -1500 DA. In the afternoon at 4:30 with about a 5mph head wind and only -500 DA I ran 9.718 TWO times back to back.
awesome!
