Default Paging Terryble Burger

127MPH is too much! We both know how Carlsbad is down hill and how the timing system is complete BS sometimes. For instance, the last time I was there, one lane clocked a full 2 MPH faster EVERY pass compared to the other lane. But congrats on the MPH the car is running well.

Can you get around my 10.82 already so I can upgrade. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I ran 126mph in one lane and 127mph in the other. Hard to believe I finally got my car almost as light as yours eh? I'm still 100# heavier though. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Sometimes you get that good air & tailwind off the ocean. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> But still 127NA is impressive any way you can get it. I'm thinking 130mph is doable at 346.

There must have been a 30mph tail wind. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> Anyway I've got some 13:1 LS6 heads and a solid roller setup coming together. Go MMS! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

But, 346 vs. 346 is fair enough to me. I have a bottle waiting for your big bore!

I'll wait till winter to swap my Ls6 heads, but I'll have hundreds of hours on the flow bench by then. Will you have that much time invested in your heads from MMS? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I don't need the time. I just drop off the cores and some money, and pick them up a few weeks later. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I was there that day. Were MPH's higher than normal? You be the judge:

Pulley'd and CAI 03 Cobra 113
Bone stock Z06 110
Bolton Z06 117
Bone stock 02 Viper 118

Sounds normal to me. THere was a cross wind, not much.

It was just a normal summer day at the track.
