Well, on my first pass in over a year because of a broken arm I was finally able to hit 11.933@118.40. I went to do my burnout and only one tire was spinning...........great. My car has a 3.73 gear in it so I knew I needed to spin a little so I didn't bog so I had the tire pressure at 20psi, which I found out later was still too high for the old ET Streets on stock 16" wheels.
I held the revs to about 4500rpm and just dumped the clutch, it seemed to hop a little but then just took off. I "grannyshifted" the whole run because I had been having problems with the McLeod master cylinder. The timeslip laid out like this.
R/t .345
60' 1.855
330' 5.085
1/8 7.747
MPH 93.15
1000 10.023
1/4 11.933
MPH 118.40
Later in the day I swapped the wheels back to my 17x11s and decided to make a pass on my BALD (middle is smooth) Nittos. It went 12.20@119.77 I have NO idea where that MPH came from but I think my car likes nittos a lot more than those ET streets as the best run on the ET streets was my very first pass

Thanks Coach.
Gator - The car felt really strong I just wish it would have come out of the hole a little better. I guess the aftermarket swaybars and bilstiens don't like to go straight. lol I'll be changing some things this winter just not sure how much money I'll have to spend after I rebuild the T56 AGAIN!
