Will be good to see the truck back out again Pitt!
For everyone, they also run open comp, 6.50 index (about 10.20-10.30 1/4 times) and 7.50 index (about 12.00 1/4 times) on the 1/8-mile that night on a pro-tree. So if you like pro-tree racing and don't want to screw with dial-ins, this might be an alternative. I ran open comp a few years ago and it's fun matting the gas as soon as you see all three yellow lights flash instead of waiting for the three light countdown.

Well, since I'm rocking the 10bolt I rounded up a trailer to take. The car is ready and it looks like I'll be there with bells and whistles. See you guys tomorrow around 4:00

Just left Tony's HP Performance in my Z, every one getting dyno'd and heading to Gainesville around 3. EFI Alchemy boys will be there also if anyone needs help ! Hope to see everyone there.

Pitt, what's the story on the transmission? I shot a couple pictures on what I'm guessing was your last pass yesterday and it didn't sound too good.

I don't know what the hell is up. I just took it off the trailer and it drives fine ?? It was blowing past the shift points and on the final run that you saw it was stuck bouncing off the limiter in first till I manually put it back in drive. Tranny was shifting strong, it just wigged out electronically ?
May need to re-look at the shifting points in the tune and also the switch on the side of the tranny. We just rebuilt the tranny...I figured the tune would remain the same ??
Post up a couple pics for me.
How did you do ?
Thx,
Pitt

Pitt,
I went out second round,
on the light. Car was working on that lap though, 1.538 60 foot.
Sounds like you got some work to do, but at least the truck is back on the road. I'll try and post up the pics I took tonight if I can.
