who knows maybe this spring ill start hittin track more not that curious to be honest its a toy,but this what its run thus far
7.16 is pretty solid man, what was your 60' and trap? That should be a low 11s car.

my friend sam drove it..im actually gonna meet him and couple friends tanight for some beers..ill ask and see if he remembers..i know hee took it easy cuz it wasnt his car..we realized it wasnt down shiftin so no point in trying to get a solid 1/4 mile run in and the line was startin to get long so called it a night..sam goes by TA1364 here,maybe he will see this and chime in

not tryin to hate on AI heads im sure they are great heads,but it seems like alot of people(with no first hand experience with) knock TSP 5.3 heads just cuz they are very affordable...i mean i did ok with em ......off subject but i removed my hooker ypipe and got a mufflex y pipe with a flowmaster merge and i did notice a sotp differnce,not to mention better tone

to make a long story short i spun and my back end ended up near the grass on the road so i briefly stopped,and he got a big leadon me, at least a couple cars...

well got back gained traction and floored it and passed him and let off when i had bout 5 cars on him...he stared sayin" BIG BOTTLE" so i popped the hood and let him see for himself that i did not have nitrous.. maybe retune your car dunno,but it would seem to me you wouldnt have a problem beatin a pullied cobra with your mods
Yep, I honestly think i'd be really close with a pullied Cobra as well, since i've raced my buddy's ported/ pullied 03 Cobra and only lost by a car or so by the top of 4th

Yeah, Tracey is a great guy and builder/tuner so it's no surprise that people compliment his work. Our car runs the way it does on a mild tune, with an LS6 intake and only a 3,200 stall. We have an appt. at Cincy Speed coming up when he will be making a few changes Hopefully he will have time to put a roll bar and bigger stall in it soon too. By spring we expect to be solid 10.80's.
