Woohoooo. Hit 11's by a hair... Went down to SDR today for some final runs with the stock rear and gear. Accomplished two new bests: 1.86 60 foot, and an 11.999. JUUUUUST eeked it out. I think I'm pretty much maxed out with a 3500 raceweight, stock rear and gears, and stock heads with no power adders, and stock 10 spokes with Nittos. Backed it up with a couple 12.0x's and a couple 12.00x's. Trap speed was down from my best of 119.88 to around 118.5. I don't see how I could possibly get any quicker with this setup, but maybe some of you hardcore guys have a tip you could share???? Ford 9 coming in this month, with some HAL's and Draglites with 27" Hoosier QTPs. Need some feedback on these runs if you guys don't mind. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: Woohoooo. Hit 11's by a hair... Well those are some good numbers. Your car was mighty impressive today. It really sucks to jump out in front of you on reaction and 60' then see you just catch up and fly by me. I need a cam. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
I think your runs were very impressive. Your 60' is very nice for a 17'' drag radial I thought. To bad, you don't have a really nice raceweight like mine - 3600lbs today <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Re: Woohoooo. Hit 11's by a hair... Yeah, like Crazy said - give it a break for awhile will you. At least let me get a clutch and some headers before you throw that 9'' in.
By the way - the top end on that cam is unreal. It is very noticeable when I ran you the number of times today.

Re: Woohoooo. Hit 11's by a hair... Nice times! <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
That cam will really appreciate more gear. You are headed in the right direction with the mods you have planned. <img border="0" alt="[burn out]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_burnout.gif" />

Re: Woohoooo. Hit 11's by a hair... Good Lord Dan! 12.5 in a 4600 pound beast is incredible <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> Nice meeting you also. I'd love to see that Lightning run in the 11's.

Re: Woohoooo. Hit 11's by a hair... Nice runs! What was your 1/8 mile mph? I made an 1/8 pass at 91 mph but didn't get a 1/4 mph for it. Just trying to get an idea...thanks!
