Default St.Thomas Dragway --Here I come!

Just getting ready to head to St.Thomas Dragway (Raceway Park) for the Friday Night Run what Ya Brung.

Buddy I work with has a Challenger RT with cold air, exhaust and tune 346hp 372lbsft at wheels. Sounds like a lot of torque to me. My mods are in sig -- still no tune. This will be my first time with MickeyT's. I am hoping to spank that thing but don't know. Any tips?
Wish me luck

That big heavy sled only goes 14's stock your car is lighter and its a Vert.U should have no problem just let the air out to 18psi and try not spin the tires.Start @ 1500rpm leaving the line then a little higher each time.Post up and let us know how u did.

Well I am back home and guess what. No surprises. Well we only had 1 head to head run but I had about 13 total.

2010 Challenger Rt/Classic 2001 Camaro Z/28 Convertible
Auto cai, exhaust Livernois Tune 6 speed - mods in sig stock tune
346rwhp 376rwtorq no idea never near a dyno

60 ft 2.15 2.09
1/8 8.998 track had problems with times
mph 80.49 for 1/8th in this lane
1/4et 13.78 13.35
102.73mph 106.43mph


Challengers Best time of the day was 13.52 around 105. This car is a really nice machine and it got a lot of attention in the pits.

My Best time was on my last run of the day.
60ft 2.06 ---- 13.04 @107.90.

I really wanted in the 12's but was having some issues. I recently discovered that my poly torque arm bushing had failed and had a thread on here about it. Well I put in a replacement last week. Today after the first run the car started to have the same symptoms. Ran it anyway, it was a long drive. Had to drive 2 hours home from the track but when I did I drove the car on some ramps and looked underneath, I **** you not --- the damn thing failed again.

F&%$$%^$!!!! A 15 dollar part probably cost me my 12's.

sorry for the long post
