Congrats guys.

In today's age of technology there really isn't any reason not to be running 10s when there are cars with stock style suspension running in the mid 7s at almost 200mph lol. then again my car is stock oh well, someday.

I heard you guys sold the black car but I thought it was a joke.

These guys are getting it done big time on the radial, that is for sure, congrats!

Only probiem I see, is everyone's jsut about at the limit of what they can do by the rules that are in place, even if everyone updates to a 25.2 chassis the weight is never gonna be under 3200 lbs like the rules state... I think this may be about as fast as you see a stock suspension f body go

Best Two Passes of the day. Not too shabby for the first time out effort.

Is the rear end dead square in that thing? Killer times on some less than stellar passes.

Phil,

Good eye. No it isn't. We normally have a guy that does a full laser alignment on it and he really goes through everything to get it pretty dead nuts perfect. Unfortunately he had to go in for an operation earlier this week and wasn't able to do it. The guys ended up doing it without the alignment rack to get it pretty straight, but it's still off by a little bit. When you carry the wheels 300'+ out you can definitely see it. We did make an adjustment to get it closer in the first round than it was before, but it's probably still out by 1/8 to 1/4 of an inch. Doesn't sound like much does it!

Nah, some tracks will let them run it out. That is what happened with Wolfe when he went a 7.4.
