Thanks man! I am fairly confident that my 1/8 mile pass of 6.50 @ 112 would have been a high 9. Your car is running very well btw.

This was on 14 lbs. Had a best trap of 142. Best 60' was 1.47. On the 1.47 pass I maxed out the controller and it showed 18 lbs. on the log, shortly after the 2-3 shift it blew the charge pipe off. Would have been an even better run too.

Videos to come.

I haven't had the chance to weigh it again. I am guessing it to be around 3450 with me in it. I think it was in the 3500 range the last time I weighed (a year or so ago) and since then I have added a turbo k-member and now have the Race Star wheels.

I am going to try and get the in-car videos that I have posted tonight. Hopefully my buddy will get his videos uploaded to youtube. There's a video on facebook, but the privacy settings will hinder everyone from seeing it.

Thanks man! Negative on the converter locking. It's only a single disk. It's on the looser side as well.

Very nice trap speed, how much timing do you have in the tune at 11 psi?

18*. On the same setting it ran the time on the slip posted, I tried to throw 24* at it and only picked up a mph. The car didn't respond to it like we thought it would. It was my "kill" tuneup, lol. On 16 lbs. and 18* it trapped 142 but I let out a bit up top and ran a low 10. I'll have to look at the slips.

I only made a couple full out passes. This was a local forum shootout day and I won the auto class. I was running against trucks, SUV's, etc., so once I got a decent lead I let out and coasted. Also, didn't want to draw too much attention to the car since I don't have a cage.

Nice runs! I got to watch your car for a few passes while I was waiting for them to run test and tune again. I wanted to come over and check it out while they had the break before midnight mania, but you must have left. Oh well, maybe another time.

Yeah, I was going to swing by over where you guys were but they kept calling us up for the shootout. After it was over we loaded up, grabbed my trophy/prize , and headed out.
