Default First Time out 1.47,6.69@105 N/A 1/8 mile

First time out on a three year project.Just worked on suspension and tire pressures.Left off trans brake @ 4200,front end was about waste high.Have alot more tuning to do with carb,and need to get anti-roll bar before the nitrous goes on. Just thought I'd share, I'm happy with the results so far.Will try to get some pics next weekend, was to hectic this weekend.6.69@105mph,1.47 60ft.Here are a couple of pics of the car completed.

Nice...I have the same setup. Hell my car is red too! I thought you stole it!

I have gone as fast 5.36 in the 1/8 on the spray so good luck. My conversion factor for 1/8 to quarter that I have found the most accurate is 1.5625 for ET. Good luck!
