Congrats on the new best. How much longer do you plan to stay SI? I'd like to see if i can get an 11.4 out of the car before I throw a cam in it, but I'm pretty impatient

Sweet times congrats on the new best My car didnt get finished in time to come out and play 
I believe the DA was around -650 today which is almost the best I have ever seen in Fla.

John.. I'm not sure why I hate you more, because you are in florida racing, or because of the times.
Congrats, have a safe trip home.

Thanks everyone!
Raceweight was ~3320 (thats with me in the car)
List of the mods to the car are here: http://www.geocities.com/wilwaxu/about.html#formula
Traction was horrible last night. I put on a show on one pass, spun so hard that the I thought I was going to take out the tree! I lifted twice and still ran a 12.28 @ 113.63
Hey EFA guys.. Weather Update for Tampa Florida: Sun for the rest of the week, highs in the 60's and lows in the 40's I'll be back in MD next weekend to enjoy your pain.
Lynda, I plan to go straight to H/C. I drive this car ALOT (44K) I'm afraid of the valve spring breakage I've seen with a cam & on the car valve spring swaps. Figure I will go with heads with double springs to give me the dependability I'm looking for.

Congrats on the new best, John!
Hey...did you see the little red 97 Cobra running 10.3's? That's Al Papitto - the car is a n/a DOHC 5.4. He's building my Factory-stock spec 4.6 for the 2004 NMRA season.
Good luck - and don't be a stranger!
