Default 10.13 @ 136! New PB!

It’s been nearly a month since running at the 2011 LTX Shootout, so I decided it was time to hit the track again. This time we headed to Little River Dragway outside of Temple, TX. Despite a 2267 ft DA and a fairly slick track after 100 ft, was able to pull off a new personal best of 10.13 @ 136 MPH. Spark plugs show it needs 1-2 degrees of timing added. Maybe with some more tuning, better air and a little luck I’ll see that 9 second slip I’ve been looking for.

Thanks! Nah, got over that hump and continued with the "go-fast" plan.

Congrats!!! 9s will be no prob next outing. Just changing the timing would have probably done it.

I take it the problem with 3rd is gone? 9's are there for sure like I said at the shootout...Congrats on the new PB but there is a lot more in your setup.

That Bitch is BADASS!! Sounds Wicked. Meticulous attention to detail. The 6-speed tops it all off. What was the sixty ft?
