Default New times!

Well I've been out of the game for awhile now, but i saw the cold weather and decided to take the old commuter out to the track. Drove home to fort myers from West Palm Beach, through on my M/T drag radials, did a little prep and headed to BMP for some test and tune. I let the car cool down for about 20 minutes and got in line. Did a good sized burnout stalled her up to 2,200ish and let her rip. the pass went as follows...

60: 1.65
330: 4.858
1/8: 7.540
MPH: 91.25
1000: 9.871
1/4: 11.842
MPH: 114.38


Only ran one more time, and the tranny slipped bad on the shift, but still managed a 11.95; pretty upset b/c the 60' was a 1.63 and i was on my way to a faster pass, but it slipped and hit the limiter a couple times. After it slipped that run i decided i didn't want to risk my tranny so i called it a night...

POWER MODS: LT's, ORY, GMMG, Lid, SSRA, home ported TB, U/D pulley, ss3600 stall, and some home tuning with hptuners not bad for stock internal

I pulled the backseat, spare tire and passenger seat, not sure the raceweight though.
