Trying to get the car ready for the shootout so we took it to Dallas Raceway. 102* temps, 3100 DA, and humid. Track prep was horrible but we managed to at least dial in the tune on the first stage again. Could not hook the car and it wanted to skate at the top. Car is ready for B.G.

Thanks to Kyle for the vid!


Also Nitro Dave, Charles, Jeff, Ray, and the crew.

Nice run! Weather sounds horrible and humidity is never fun. Seems to be close to what we have here in vegas recently. Hope you get that second stage dialed...

Cars sounds Wicked and looks incredible. I only heard one gear shift. Are you running a Powerglide? Also, what rpms thru the traps?
