Question Will I make it??

Hers my mod list.


M6, Ram power grip HD clutch
SLP lid, Cold air, MAF, & Line lock
Kooks 1 3/4 stepped 1 7/8 &, Y pipe, Borla exhaust
BMR ADJ. torque arm, torque arm relocation, ADJ. panhard bar, SFC , LCA and relocation brackets &, drive shaft loop
Strange Dana S60, 4.10 gears, true track, Chromoly Drive Shaft
TSP MS4 cam ported LS6 oil pump, LS2 timing chain, LS7 lifters, PRC 650 springs, TSP pushrods

Last time I ran I got a 12.21 @ 117mph. on bad nittos. (aka nittos SUCK!)
I had a bad tune from Texas speed also. Running fat at idle and lean at WOT. Thats just two things they messed up for me. the car was wacked out bad.

So with a new tune and my new better dyno numbers (420RWHP/389RWTQ)

I'm trying to figure out what I should be running tomorrow at the track. I will be on street tires but they hooked better than the nittos ever did.

I don't see why you shouldn't make it, just lay it easy on those street tires and go from there

Well I ran really bad.

My 60's were in the 2.3 2.6 area and ontop of that I was topping out 4th before the 1/4 line. I really dont want to be shifting into 5th. Also the car seemed to be cutting out. I havent found out why yet. I'm wondering if taking out the air filter could have caused it bc once I put it back in my car acted fine again and I've checked everything (ign., fuel, valves) nothing was wrong. I didnt suck anything up bc my maf screen is still in and would have caught anything.
My time best was 12.57 @ 117mph. REALLY bad time. I've ran 12.21 before at 117 with a 2.1 60' I need DR's

I was really hoping you would get some good passes out of it so I could kind of see a base line of what my car might do. I am running the same cam shaft and almost identicle evrything else. I have a couple of other suspension mods. but I thought I would be able to kind of see where I was at. Where exactly are you located and what is the elevation there compered to Oklahoma City?

I'm just north of Joplin. about an hour and a half west of springfield. Joplin sits around 1005 ft your at 1073 ft.

What other mods do you have?

Also I have never made a pass on a DR. I'm looking for some now so I can really launch the car for once. Yeah I ran nittos but there a joke.

Yeah I do this is really my only car so I drive it all the time. I just have to say its all in the tune. AWESOME tune = awesome DD car. I had a bad tune and car ran like ****. took the car to another guy in St. louis and he fixed it for me car runs great! Dyno tune is only good for WOT. Thats why you have to get a driveability tune also.
