Our cars are set up much the same, wish I could get my 60's down a little. What tire are you running? Haven't decided where to go from here, don't want to get crazy with the weight reduction stuff! Every 100lbs is worth how much in ET reduction? Thought about just doing a cam and some weight reduction but I ran well into the 11's with the 100 shot and have to drive 8 hour roundtrips to race!! Of course, I do want to go faster, that keeps it fun!

I use BFG DR's 255's, and the tread is just about gone, making them pretty much slicks. Hook at the track like glue, but slide around on the street. Pretty scary on the street with them, and don't even think about driving with them in the rain, even new. I hear that every 100lbs gone is worth about .1 in et, but that's a ballpark figure I'm sure. I'll be doing a cam/intake/tune this spring, which should put me in the 11's for sure. I only have to drive about 20 min to the track here, so I'm lucky for that. 8 hour round trip is alot, but it beats racing on the street and getting busted. Judges here have taken away cars from people I hear from street racing.
