Default 5.042 at 145.16 mph second time out
Well we entered out local x275 race and won. I do not have my license yet so my boy Gary drove... Track was awful, could not leave to aggressive but managed to run a new best. Very happy with where the car is going... car is 3440 with driver so next is taking some weight out to get down to 32xx. I want to thank the companies that sponsor and assist in this build, Fragola Performance Products, Eric and Kevin at Midwest Chassis, My tuner Frank Soldridge, BMR, Strange, Lane at PTC, Randy at Leash, Big Stuff 3, Paul at Outlaw Racecraft, EAD Racing, Chiseled Performance, Exstreme Fab and Beadlock, and Bobby my engine builder at RPE Machine, Doug Macy for many things, Paul Albino from Total Inductions Tuning Solutions for badass wiring. And Anthony Manna..

Now time to get weight out and turn the boost up and get that ramp in. Menscers coming, Midwest Chassis front end, Strange brakes, new Tq arm and LCA's. .... Here is a pic and video of the final.

Thanks Dave... now going to start giving it some boost and getting to a track to get that ramp in quick. The problem with New England Dragway is we race the track not a number since it is so marginal.

Put up some pics of the car. I'm not an "F body" guy, but your car is sweet.

That car is bad as hell! No intercooler? Couldn't see any indication of one in the pics anywhere. May have just missed it. When your car looks fast sittin still, you know you nailed it! And you did.

What were your settings on the boost leash? How much did you leave on? If you don't mind sharing. Thanks
