Ran a new best of 12.7 @105 with a 1.7 60 foot first run of the day. Could not hook the rest of the night. next best was a 12.9 with a 2.0 60 feathering it out of the hole. recent mods were a 3500-2.1 fuddle stall and 275 nittos. Steph you called it right on with your 1.7 prediction. Looks like the stall and tires gained me .3 on the 60 foot and lost ~4mph up top. The car is hitting the rev limiter hard on the 1-2 shift and also on the 2-3 shift and sits on the limiter in 2nd until I pedal it. Do I neeed to have it tuned for the stall or is my tranny going south?

Nice to meet you guys there. 6 or 7 real nice 4th gens runnin real good.

Awesome! Congrats on the new time. I am sure you can see better on a better prepped rental or test and tune.
