Default 9.45 @ 148.89- come on PSJ.

Went to Milan today. Added 1.5* of timing and got another new best.

60'- 1.46
1/8- 6.13
MPH- 116.24
1/4- 9.45
MPH- 148.89

Everything else is the same as in the 9.59 @ 146 post. Trans and converter are coming out in the morning.

It actually peaked at the very end of the run at 24. Most of the pass is 22 then it comes up some when the converter locks.

Converter is being tightened a bunch and the trans is having the brake adjusted so it hits harder and faster.

Nope. Just track time.

3.50 gears. BS3 controlls the tranny. I just put it in drive, put the pedal to the floor, let go of the button and drive.

I'm thinking 850-900rwhp for your combo, you are moving a lot of weight!

I'm only boosting like 18psi with my lil' blower.

I think your low for a rossler built unit, its close to a strongass th400 with a gear vendors unit, he has said in past.

He told me a roundabout price, and I about droped my computer

Twin Turbo CE, what do you do for a living if you dont mind me asking? I need to get into it whatever it is.

Not sure I would bet on a 9.45 car losing to a 9.61 car.

But I know Mike is looking to run a 8.99 sometime this year and then drive the car home.... Me too. I have some tricks up my sleeve, I'll hold off on discussing some of them until they are proven.
