Default Going to the track again trying to beat 11.54 at 117

Going to the track again today, trying to beat the 11.54 at 117 that I ran a couple weeks ago. The only changes I made are Mallery 685, moroso plug wires( I was running stockers with about 30,000 miles and 6 years on them), And bigger soleniods(same jetting just getting ready for a 200 shot next time out).
I wish I would have got a set of skinnies. I want to get a better picture and maybe some video.

At this point I want to get it to run 10.9's. These times were full weight with the factory rims up front. I plan on running some skinnies, a light weight k-member, maybe a fiberglass hood, with the battery getting moved to the trunk. I may up the juice from 150 to a 200 shot.

I had a guy from work shot the video, so I will get it from him on tuesday then I have to find a way to get it on the computer.

Full weight only thing removed was the spare tire but I added 24lbs in that location. I should put it on a scale to see what the number really is before I put it on a diet.
