Default New best....Thanks ECS

I'll start with the passes.....

1. 60 - 1.487, 1/8 - 6.660 @ 102.80, 1/4 - 10.472 @ 131.18
2. 60 - 1.504, 1/8 - 6.704 @ 101.98, 1/4 - 10.484 @ 132.05
3. 60 - 1.439, 1/8 - 6.525 @ 103.50, 1/4 - 10.253 @ 133.88
4. 60 - 1.434, 1/8 - 6.536 @ 103.12, 1/4 - 10.286 @ 132.90
5. 60 - 1.410, 1/8 - 6.498 @ 104.76, 1/4 - 10.246 @ 133.39(best of the night)
6. 60 - 1.416, 1/8 - 6.507 @ 104.80, 1/4 - 10.254 @ 133.53(best 1/8 and 1/4 mph)
7. 60 - 1.408, 1/8 - 6.497 @ 104.61, 1/4 - 10.254 @ 132.97(best 60 ft)



I have never been so happy after going to the track!!!! I've been out of the game for 2 years(11.5 @ 122 that broke the trans) and coming back to a low 10 is amazing. I want to thank the guys over at ECS so much for putting together a solid car. To Chris and Matt for putting up with my endless nagging emails lol. Thanks to Tommy for building an amazing transmission, and Doug for tuning the crap out of it. I gotta thank my buddy Ron for helping me out in a big way with the RSD roll bar installation. Without you man I wouldn't have gotten it in allowing me to runn all out all night long. Thank you to all my friends who showed up and helped make it an amazing night at atco!!!
I can say that going from a 1.810 60ft with the stock converter 1 handing the wheel to a built trans/convertor running a 1.408 60 ft and trying to 1 hand the steering wheel was NO JOKE lol. I grabbed the wheel in a hurry with the other hand. I definitely was not ready for that.
I'll have the vids up as soon as I get them uploaded(the in car). There are a few others from outside that I'm waiting on.

That is really strong. Sounds fantastic. You have convinced me that I must go that fast. Here comes the nitrous.

Thanks. lol yeah going fast is a vicious cycle. Though, I don't want to put a full cage in for 9s. I still don't know if I want to swap out the stock LS6 intake/tb and unported heads. I love racing, but putting a 10 point in the car isn't an option.

I am with you on this. The only reason I am not doing more is because I will be required to install a roll bar, axles, drive shaft loop, harnesses and buy a jacket.
