Nobody, its only been 30 minutes.
Most of us have been drooling on our keyboards since opening the thread.
Can you give us the cam specs? (just general, not specific) Also, what size shot are you planning on running?
also, why keep the IRS? I would have thought a build of this magnitude would have seen a solid Rear axle.
Thanks for sharing.

Matt, we got rained out this afternoon. Had a good time at the track hanging out. Looks like the event is rescheduled for mid August...
To the questions above.... IRS was kept to allow the car to race in "stock suspension" classes. IRS has had quite a bit of work done to it to help it stay together..
As for the nitrous... We will spray it until it wont hook anymore or she blows... Looking to take down some records this fall if all goes well.
Compression is only 11.1:1 and the cam is 2xx/2xx BIG/BIG xxx

I promise I will do my best to be there in August to cheer Keith on. Is he gonna try to make it to the LSX shootout in Memphis? I want to try to go this year, if at all possible. I know you guys could really represent with that Monster!!!

2 weeks and no dyno graph or track times - was the smoke on the dyno the motor giving out or was it really the tires?
I see you went back and said 608rwhp in the OP - that's really low for what this motor should be putting out. I thought if your rapping it out to 8800rpm it would be in the 650+rwhp even with 11:1 compression.
So I guess you only ran 11's with this car if it did make it to the track?
