Getting closer New Best. Went to Byron Dragway on Sunday with Speed Inc looking to run a ten second pass on nuts with a new tranny |FLT level 4| and a |Circle D 4000 coverter| had a couple new best but came up just a hair short of my goal. Still a good day for some of us and not so good for others.

11.132 @ 119.75 NA 1.46 sixty New best sixty
Heres the slips car 617.
Had a new best 60ft also.

I'm hoping for 10s this year also...The times in my sig were with a Vig 3600, Spohn street 1" rear bar and 275 60 M/T radials...This year I'm running a Vig 4000, Spohn Pro series rear bar, and 325 50 M/T radials...If I can get the damn thing into the high 1.4s to 60' I think I'll have it...That and for added insurance, have my 115 lb fiance drive the thing...That's a 100 lb weight loss! I'm hoping adding 400 more stall rpm will help it hit harder...Feels realling good on the street and those big Mickeys hook much better than the smaller 275s...at least in street testing...

Good luck Alan I think you will get it but I would be a little concerned about the extra rolling mass of the 325's.
BTW I'm still on the stock rear bar and the car was twisting pretty bad with the way that converter was hitting. I'm defiantly going to invest in a spohn.
My best sixty that day was a 1.46 but I only ran a 11.132

The extra weight is a bit of a concern, but we'll see...I also want to try the M&H 325s as they are lighter and a hair narrower...I also lost 35 lbs off of my own *** since last year so I'm hoping my personal weight loss offsets that of the tires...The new bar makes a huge difference back there at least it feels much better on the street...We were able to set the suspension preload very easily with the big Spohn bar back there. Now the car hits very hard and goes straight...I'm thinking that if I hade your 1.46 I would have my 10.9X...
