Default More 1/4 times

Made it to NED today for the track rental(finally with my car)
Drove up, lowered the tire pressure to 21psi.Added 5 gallons of 104 (for insurance and needed more fuel)With 1/2 tank of gas and a race weight of 3550lbs here are my runs on the tuning I've been driving around with all summer.
1.61 60'
6.975 at 101.59mph 1/8
10.837 at 128mph 1/4

2nd
1.63 60'
13.7 at 86mph 1/4
missed 2nd and cruised the 1/4 (It happens )

3rd
1.72 60'
7.100 at 101.16mph 1/8
10.973 at 127.70mph 1/4

4th
1.64 60'
6.999 at 100.09mph 1/8
10.855 at 127.99mph 1/4

5th
1.63 60'
6.909 at 102.69mph 1/8
10.741 at 129.08mph 1/4

I'm very happy with the car.No problems with it all year,I haven't even touched the blower assembly since install.The clutch is pretty much gone due to launching at 5500rpm with 3.42's and the car dead hooking every run on the Nitto's.

Even drove home and averaged 29.8 MPG

Time for the new motor

Those times just aren't fair, especially the 60'

Are you coming down for the Corvette Challenge?

New engine???
Hope your kidding, sounds like that one is working just fine.
Which clutch do you have?
If you really do get a new engine sell me that supercharger, I promise I wont ask you or Matt for help tuning it
