That is a fantastic run. That would be 10.9 or 11.doh.

What led to the improvement?

And you might have the fastest LE2 setup now. Javier might have some catching up to do.

Thanks guys...I'm trying to get it in the 10's by the shootout.

The only thing I've done to the car since last time at the track is, QA1's all around, ls1 lid and new tires(tires went from a 27x11.5 qtp to a 275/50 M/T dr)

That's a nice improvement for those mods. Did you check your tune after the lid addition? I found that mine needed some adjustment after I changed my air intake setup.

What was the DA like at the track?

the car is moving real well.

Hopefully be even faster by the shootout (and the 9 hour drive each way).

Not bad for a 3700 lb car with 3.55 gears.

yea, this car belongs to my co-worker.

It really is a beast and makes tons of TQ.

It is just too nice of a car to start removing things from. Gotta keep the A/C, sway bars, ABS, etc, etc.

It is the green color that changes from purpel/buel to green/blue in different light. I think it is called Mystic green but not sure. Around 90K miles on this car and it is nicer than my wifes 2000 T/A.

Anyway, this is a NICE 97 T/A for any of those that have not seen it.

Sweet, but how the heck do you 60ft. that well with that weight? Needless to say I'm jealous.
Nice job Lloyd, looks like it's going to be a very good year for some LE cars.

I don't know how it did it, it pull both wheels about a foot and carried them about 30ft. I just keep tightining the rear shocks and it just kept geting better 60's.. I'm still waiting for my new Circle-D converter and hopefuly some 1.4 60's.
