Default New best 1/8 mile- N/A

The weather could have been better (66*, dew point was 55*, humidity was 68%, barometer 29.97) & my 60' still sucks, but I thought the car ran pretty well.

1.81 60 FT
5.18 330 FT
7.96 1/8 ET
89.21 MPH


My prev best mph was 85.??, so I picked up some pretty good mph with the TSP 225. I took the car to be tuned, but I had the timing chain a tooth off. The air fuel was good when they dynoed it then and the car runs smooth now. Do I need to have the car fully tuned up now?

Full list of mods:
TSP 225
Macs, off road y
ASP crank pulley
Whisper lid
Hooker Catback-Cut out
Yank 3200 2.8 STR
B&M Shift kit
Stock 3.23s
BMR LCAs
GMS lowering springs
26x11.5x16 ET Streets

A good tune can't hurt. Congrats on the new mph.

We are all going to pretty much stay out of down town and the old spots for a while & let the 16 second cars keep messing it up for everyone & getting tickets.

I've got some races lined up for the all night drags at the 1/8 mile for this Friday, the TNT kit is getting its' first try out.

nice time and even better mph. I'd think there's a 7.7 something in there somewhere with a better hook, but good job
