Did he install the K-Member A-Arms afterwards?

~.05 from the gearing and ~.05 from the KMember you think?

How did the DA's compare etc between the two days?

Great times by everyone!
Cheers,
Chris

It makes sense now after reading your other post in Eastern. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
I would definitely throw back in the TP4400 you will probably pick up mph too.
Cheers,
Chris

Joel's 60' was in the 1.5s on his first runs then he 60' a 1.48 and ran 11.17 on his last run.

Joel, I think youre doing fine with the Vig. We just have to tweak things a bit. You should go in the 10s (with you driving) and before the K-members are changed.

LOL Julio, you can see why I was confused, but it all makes sense now <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Great times BTW,

I would give my left nut for a 1.4 sixty <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
1.6 sixtys up here are the norm with our less than ideal track prep, hopefully that will improve once I can get to the track <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Chris
