The suspension setup was funny.. +4 deg on the tq arm pinion angle and the lcas were way off (I forgot off the top of my head would have to ask george). Spinning the 28's running a 1.52 short time.

And if so what stall/rear gears?

Ya... Pete is foot peddling his way to the finish line and still goes 10.6's... but he couldnt get the traction out of the hole, his Nike's were worn out, we just ordered a new pair of Reebok slicks for him.

Race weight was 3278. Suspension was laughable, last shop to set it up was +4 pinion angle, setting 9 on the rear left shock, setting 7 on the right rear, 3 setting both fronts and the LCAs were also positive angle. We didnt check this before hitting the track since we ran out of time, but now it is correctly setup. We might make more passes this week, dont know.

72 deg., 29.37 hum.

60' 1.523
330' 4.362
1/8 6.769
MPH 101.66
1000 8.866
1/4 10.647
MPH 126.51
