Default New personal best. Cam only, using a baby 224 cam.

MTI C2 cam, specs a .050", 224/224 .581/.581 112, Yank PT4400, 4.10, 3330 race weight, completely stock heads and bottom end, naturally aspirated, with an incredible DA of -1105!!!

1.48
7.00
96.88
11.08
119.68

I was stunned, the lady at the booth asked where my fire jacket was, and I replied with...uhh, its in the truck, she's like well, put it on because you just ran an 11.0. I said to myself, no way, she read it wrong. I took the slip rolled up my window and start going crazy, yelling at the top of my lungs, I was extremely excited. Weather made a big difference tonight. I short shifted the 1-2 shift, which I wish I hadnt do because it could of been a 10 sec. timeslip.

I ran a couple more 11 teens, but the last run I had a 1.48 60 ft. again, yet I hit the rev limiter 3 times because it didnt want to shift, and I know, I just know that it could of been the 10 sec. time slip Ive been wanting. I manage to pull an 11.18 that run. None the less, Ive very happy with the numbers it put down tonight. Cant imagine what the T-Rex is going to do for me. Only time will tell...

Nice man What track did you run at? All the tracks around the DFW are only running during daylight hours. Kinda sucks for trying to catch some -1000 DA air.

thebernsZ28, I hope to reach that point. I was overly excited about the 60 ft. I've been wanting a 1.4X 60 ft. ever since I changed combos. Hopefully by the time the swap is done, some more good weather will be rolling around. Not planning to go for the record, but 10.80s is my goal. All Im focused on right now is 10.99 and Ill be more than happy.

DMcRacer, Houston Raceway Park. Weather was definately good. It got better as the night went on, but unfortunately the track has to close sometime.

2ScoopsTa, suspension:

Spohn chromoly torque arm
Spohn chromoly adjustable lower control arms w/poly/rod ends
Spohn chromoly adjustable panhard bar w/poly/rod ends
Spohn 1" (25mm) chromoly rear swaybar
Spohn aftermarket rear end spacer kit
Spohn chromoly tubular sub-frame connnectors
stock springs in a 4 corners w/R series Hals in front, F series Hals in rear
BMR tublar k-member
BMR tubular upper a-arms
BMR tubular lower a-arms
BMR bolt-in relocation brackets
Airlift airbar in passenger rear spring
Madman manual steering rack
Mickey Thompson 26x10x15 ET Drags

Thanks to all for the compliments.

Nice runs. How was HRP hooking? Last couple times I went out in my car I couldnt hook very well. Yank PT4400 and the 4.10s are a very nice combo and will work even better when you step up with a bigger cam.

JaSSon, nope, Strange 12 bolt.

CamaroCain, I guess it was hooking good, pulled my first 1.4X 60 ft. ever! I dont know why my 60 fts. fluctuated, 1.52, 1.54, 1.48, 1.53, 1.48, etc. I've got a T-ReX coming. Hopefully that will all be squared away before next weekend. Hopefully good air will roll around again by then.

Thanks everyone for the compliments. I hope that with the bigger cam, 10.90s will be easy. Need to remove more weight and get ready for the new cam.

Cool beans!

And your set up is one argument for getting a full suspension for the car instead of those who try to get unreal ET's with just horsepower.
