Default 408 FMS baby cam new bests

still UNTUNED, but ran at thunder this weekend and got some new bests.

1st qualifying pass sunday ran a 10.53 @ 130.49 1.45 60'

cut a 1.42 60' earlier in the day.

DA was around 800.

only have about 300 miles on the motor and 12 or so passes. guessing it has a few more tenths in it.

this was a stock M6 tranny that has over 100 passes on it with 500ish rwhp. and people say the T56's are junk I'm always about 6 months behind on the M6 record

Contrats on the new best man. I saw you were up against the stock elem car(daigo) in the next round after our run. OH well..at least you didn't go out first round

All i know is that on our run both of us blew the tires away(and I seemed to have forgotten where 3rd is..lol)...I hate being first out after a long layoff and they just preped the track Seemed like the manual guys were having problems for a few runs untill the track bite got seasoned in.

anyway..nice meeting you and contrats on the new best.

What do you consider a "baby" cam? What kind of heads? Good runs, Shawn

Is that an all motor run? What is your entire setup?

I take it this was on slicks?

Was that N/A or did you spray that run?

Awesome times

friggin NICE john. now get on AIM some time so i can complain about your front clip being help up with tape! j/k

btw i think he raceweight was whatever the minimum was for the shootout. 3400 lbs or so? if so, that is just incredible at that raceweight.
