Default new pb, video inside

got the car out last sunday and made a couple passes. this was the best one. mods are:
patriot stg.2 ls6
233/239 .614/.607 111+ 2
100 shot

i think it has a bit more left in it. im happy with the times even though it seems like it should run a bit faster? not sure on the weight but i will find out when i hit up MIR at the end of the month. what do you think it will go in the 1/4?

Nice pass!!! We have the same shifter also.. I have a feeling we are going to be real close, you will probably inch ahead of me to be totally honest once you turn up the spray.
Good Job!

Nice times, that 6.60 1/8th mile should get you into the 10.30's-40's in the 1/4. Goodluck
