Just let me know. We've been testing on the 1/8 lately. FYI...We turn it off at the 1/8 and coast through the 1/4 at 8.80's

Congrats on the build.

I don't think there was a video posted of the car mentioned that was cutting 1.23 60's. The LMR may in fact run that fast, but the discussion of the 1.23 short times was about a different IRS car.

Keith, you have one bad C5 no doubt but I have no probelm lining up next to anyone. This was the first pass ever on this car and it went a 1.36 sixty and a 5.5 @133mph through the 1/8 mile. This car is only going to get faster once we get back to the track and start tuning on the suspension and start adding some real boost! A 1.23 sixty ft is just bad *** for an IRS car. Congrats!

I think we are coming out to Texas for a race Bonny Webb is putting on. Maybe we can line up then. I'll keep you posted.

What rear diff are you guys running?
