Thanks everyone for all the kind words. I've had about every stupid small issue you could have. It really feels good to FINALLY run a 7! I have to say the car is running so strong! I didn't expect that mph @ 3520 lbs and 24 lbs of boost. The ET wasn't there for the drag radials. I had way too much tire spin.
Dan at Speed Inc welded up a header crack and bungs in the valve cover last minute for me to get out.
Jim from Speed who has worked with me for years, unbelievable tuner!!
Mark K. and Ohio Boys for helping with many questions with the D/R's and boost controller setup.
Josh and Steven (LMR) for helping at the Holley Fest!! You and The Ohio Boys are a class act. Anyone who's nervous about going to a big event, you shouldn't be. These guys were so willing to help out, I went for the first time and had a BLAST!! You guys need to make that event for next year.
PSJ helping out at the Holley Fest and at the last outing.

Congrats Andy and thanks for the props...truth is, I have had alot of help along the way and it's only right to pass that info along to help someone else.
Your car has a ton of potential....come to Milan Friday and then make sure your at the LSX Shootout so we can keep the ball rolling.

Cool to see Mark helping Andy get it done.

It's more fun for me to remind Andy to turn on the C02 and tow him to lanes than for me to try to have a 7 or 8 second car.
Anyway, back to Andy... So do you think the car has a 1st gear power wheelie problem or that GLD was not hooking good enough?

I'm sure Andy will let me make a pass or two at some point, I'm sure that 7.9@185 would feel about the same as my 9.4@145.
(Yes I'm joking).
Anyhoo, Speed Inc. did a heckuva job with the car, building the kit and the tuning skillz of Jim "must have AC" Moran.
