Default 12.2@116 torquer V.2 cam only

went to the track this evening, was having major traction issues. Finally found the problem on the third run. The torque arm rubber bushing must have been working it's way loose, because it popped out of the mount on the third run completely. I had to crawl under it and put it back it, unfortunately by the time I got that done, they were rapping up and I didn't get to try it out with the mount fixed. First two passed I was launching between 4500 and 5000. Was feathering it the first pass to try and stop the spinning. I think I've got the air pressure down, the M/T's like 15psi cold. I'm still working on adjusting the shocks. Car is just bolt ons and a torquer V.2 cam. I swapped in my moser 9" with 4.11's/locker/35 splines. I've still got some tweeking to do, but not bad for the first time I've had this car out. It's got good trap speeds, I should see 11's next time out. Vids and timeslips attached. Also found the tack is 300 rpm slow (I knew they were slow), hit the 6800 limiter at 6500 on the tack on the last run. Shift light is coming. BTW runs are from right to left, with right being the first run.

That's the goal, I've been tweaking the suspension here and there trying to get it right. I should be back out on Friday. I'd like to see some 11's before I tear it all apart this winter.
