Hey Gary ! It should trap 136-138 so I would say 9.8-9.9s, you could get 10.6-10.7s with traction.

I don't think Lee is too worried. Neither Caveman or I have yet to run a number like him. We're just bench racing at the moment

I'll be happy if the car continues turning 9.60s but I'm hoping to run that magical 9.5x pass at BMP. Weather is looking good, I think I am going to start fasting to cut off a few pounds before Sat

Lee, I'm bringing the video camera and if you have yours we ought to be able to get some great footage to piece together some nice clips. I hope you do hit the 9.5s.

I'm trying out a new first gear planetary and have tightened up my converter. We'll see if my car picks up. I'll be happy going away with 9.8x. Hmmm, maybe I should try fasting too
