668rwhp on pump gas Car is completely retuned with the BS3 and feels awesome Air/fuel is perfect on the motor(12.9) and on the jug(11.7). Just need to license and get some seat time and I'll be ready for the pump gas drags May 13th.
Car made 668rwhp on the 150 pills (yes on pump gas) and is just plain stupid, it RPM's freakin crazy on the jug Jetted it up to the 250 pills and everything still looks great (not ready to release those #'s at this time
).
If the weather holds Tuesday I'll get some track times She should lay down a pretty stout # this year with the changes I've made.
The best thing is there is absolutely no issues with anything right now. Coolant, oil, plugs all look perfect and the car didn't miss a beat on the dyno.
It's nights like tonight that get you through all the BS nights that you go through
Track times coming soon

Its only a 10 gallon cell and trust me it wasnt full
all the safety stuff, wheelie bars, n2o crap, I guess it all adds up pretty qick. I could probally get around 100 pounds out of it without getting to drastic, still have the stock carpet, door bars, rear bumper, drivers air bag, and could also find some lighter seats. Might have to throw some of those cheap plastic ones in temporilary. Outside of those things it'll tough for me to get any more out of it without making it look like a tin can

well just with what you listed you can loose a good bit especially if you on stock seats. go to some kirkey prodrags, they saved me a ton of weight. you could lose alot on the door bars, bumper support and carpet also. i still have all my pannels and carpet at the moment just to keep from lookng like a can.

I'm running Tenzo seats (got a good deal on them) there probally a little lighter than stock but not much. I just remebered I'll have to add all the weight back in for the LS1tech races
Think I'm supposed to weigh like 3475

Ya the weight thing sucks
Went to the track tonight and got one crapy motor pass in that I don't even care to mention and while we were waiting for the bottle to heat up they closed the track because of some bad weather moving in
I will probally license next week so it'll probally be 2 weeks before I have anything respectable to post

Well if something goes wrong it won't be from a lack of effort I've spent alot of time, research, and $ to go down there and run decent. I already know I'm underpowered compared to some of the other cars in the field but I'm still expecting to be able to run in the deep 9's which should still be respectable. My suspension works very well and the car is scaled and ready to go. With a little luck hopefully I'll make the top 10 or better
