Finally got the car out to the track last weekend and didnt go as exactly as planned and we got rained out half way through the day but still ran pretty good. All new everything and car was still setup for the street but still managed 8.87@163 on only 14 lbs of boost. Last year I ran 8.87@153 on 24 lbs so I guess were making a lot more power. Now the tracks are closed so will have to wait till next year to see what I can get it to run after some more updates to see what we can run.

Right, lol. I turned it up a decent amount too to make a real pass but started to rain and really pissed me off. I always hate when people say "it has more in it" but at only 14 lbs it really does have more in it.

Haven't been here in forever! Car us still around and keeps getting updates. Not much prepped truck racing these days and all back of the track no prep stuff. Switched out to a Holley dominator that allowed me to see all my shitty data. This winter I'm changing out shocks and ditching this tight converter for a looser one to elimate my huge rpm drop on shifts. Bump this legendary built back up the list, lol.

Been almost a year since been here. Car still going through changes like all cars do. Now it's a no prep car and running 1/8 mile with 300 lbs in the back. Goes from "project tin can" to adding 300 lbs in it, lol. Crazy how the world works.

Happy to see it’s still going!
Funny about the weight thing…. As you, I tried to get my car as light as possible during the build. Now I have to add 400+lbs to get to legal weight for Ultra Street…. F that! I’ll run some other class… lol
