yeah it pulled wheels in 2nd also I think this 60ft was like a 1.32 (my record pass was a 1.29)

and its going through traps at 7700, nitrous is off at 7500. got a little grimlin with the nitrous being on in 4th gear and 7600 rpm's. Timing jumps to 0. logged everything and still trying to figure out the deal. This same problem would happen on my 2000 SS when I had nitrous on it. pulling to 7600 and timing would always go to 0.

Car is getting painted in the next couple weeks. pulled motor and trans, going to check over everything to make sure its ready for another full season.

as much as I hate to do it, but the car is getting a glide to do more heads up style racing, mainly LSX Real Street.

I will be updating with pics when the car starts to get painted, and any other changes along the way.

Very sad to see the t56 go. Do you want to sell your trans?

I was told wording is getting changed. and if they want the frame rails there I already got a set laying there ready to be put back on, just need trimmed to fit.

but from the sound of things they might let trimmed front frame rails in...

plus I ran 2 races and no one said a thing.............. show up and racing is better than bitching on the internet. just like rules about "driving cars to lanes" are changed at time of race cause someone said so.

Will you be allowed to be towed to the line in 2012 or they going to enforce the rules?

They will probably flip a coin at each race to decide on this...
