Sup Fellas, Back again!... Went to one of the crapiest tracks around the area, Little river in temple tx. To my surprise, they where actually doing some type of prep work, and I have a new addition to my set up.

I got me some used Mt Et streets from craiglist, used but still in decent shape. Anyway, I was able to pull a 1.6 but let off towards the end, IF anyone is familiar with TAD (little River) they will know that its hard to see where the box that marks the finish line is. So sadly only came in at 11.8, but ended with a beautiful surprise! the car lifts the left tire on 1.6 60 pases. I heard a loud slap, but didnt think nothing of it, since i have never caught any type of Air in the past, so was actually my first time and was great.


Long story short, My best pass of the night was 11.5 with a 1.7 60ft. Really wish i didnt let out on my first pass, would of been a low 11 sec pass

Dude im trying... Honestly tho, Its extremely hard to see the finish line, and you absolutely have to slam on the brakes once you pass it, otherwise you will be in the gravel or a fence. Its a weird track with no shut down distance.

Im getting there man, maybe a bit of weight reduction and should be good to go!

Lets hope so, I sent off my stall off to precision to get checked out due to transmission oil pump failure. Pump got replaced and stall was set up to b a lil tighter and a lot more nitrous efficient
So I expect it to run a lil better... just 1 ten sec pass and ill be happy. Chill mode on the bird after that, and on to the next project.

Installed trans only with stall of course yesterday after work. I should finish today, and pretty much have what I need to make dry to wet shot conversion. Soon enough ill b spraying a decent hit.
