As I was going through the traps for my final run, i threw my belt, Not only did it overheat but it fked up my alternator and the bracket.

I got that fixed, but i'm not going to race until i get some ARP wheel studs.

Trying to go watch, I got a boo boo, so I might not make it. Weather looks like it will be a HP maker.

Spencer, I have a couple of new set's still in the package. Sitting on the shelf, saw them yesterday, part number mor 46160, see if they will work, cheap for you.

the track sucked *** as always. got there at 5pm and only got 3 runs in. Somehow my beater managed a 12.24 @109. So I guess it was worth going out there

Sean - you cant expect much more than that at good 'ol 66. But you made a huge improvement over a 13.0 so I would be pumped if I were you. a .76 shave is woah

I got there about 3:45 and they had the gates open and cars were backed up from the ticket booths to the gates. By the time 4 came around there was a backup on the street. I got in 4 runs by 5, then just one after that. Ran a decent time I guess, but I wanted another 1/10th.

The 315 nittos alone should almost put you into 12's if not into high 12's

Yes, I have 10 new in the package, $10 seem fair? I believe I paid ~$20. Should be at shop all day thur & fri.

I believe I have 10-20 used ones also, if anyone needs some. Probably have a bunch of open lug nut sets. Will look when my back gets better.

All I can think of is the tune isn't as good as I think it is, that and my trans. isn't exactly in great shape.

We were there playing with a prostock. Car was hooking a little too good and would bog 100 feet out, but then pick up and mph great. 8.01 @ 181. I've got a few pics I'll put up in a few minutes.
