But be quick about it, they'll only have the car til tomorrow.
Thanks for getting that posted Drew. He still has the car as of now. He is willing to let it go for $800 almost complete minus what I took out of it (seats, radio and speakers). Some pretty nasty passenger front damage. LT1 and 6-speed with 125,000 miles on it.

Wish I could go tomorrow. RPM's shop car got a nice writeup in GMHTP. 1.30s on a 4l65e is pretty cool. Wonder what HP level they suggest going to an 80e?

Stock is fine with me, and free is my favorite price.

Can I stop by and snag that this weekend sometime?

Thanks!

Just for those who weren't there this morning at RPM's Track Day, I went a 11.561@119mph for the 1st time ever going to the track. I'll post the video sometime this weekend, and Mike Voelker had another personal best the same run I did.

Here's the video. The quality is okay but it looks better on my computer before I uploaded it. I went 11.561 @ 119 mph and Mike V. went 10.77 @ 125 mph.

Went 11.50x @ 127.17 with a 1.77 sixty foot At Fast and Stupid night. Personal best but the truck has a lot more in it. Need to get some 15" rims and 28" tall tires. Truck is all over the freakin track as well. Launches straight but I can't keep that thing in the groove to save my life. To much powa I guess :/

EDIT:

I also have a set of MT ET Streets for sale 26x10.5x16 if anyone is interested

Hey guys, I went to the track Friday night out here in KC. Best pass was the first one, went 6.51 @ 107 to the 1/8th. I let off at about 900 ft and it went 10.80 @ 95 mph to the 1/4. With the little 26x8.5 tires and a 4.11 gear, I can't run it out the backdoor. The class I run in is 1/8 mile only.

Here's the vid:

Default BMR non-adjustable rear LCA's for sale

Hello,
Does anyone in the Fort Wayne area need a set of BMR non-adjustable rear LCA's? $50, red and they are in excellent shape. I would prefer to sell them locally so someone in the Fort Wayne area can benefit.

I posted a listing in the For Sale section as well.

Thank you.

Another new ET. Frustrated that I can't figure out how to get my 60s down, other than spend more $.

Congrats on your success!! I'm assuming that with your MWC you did the adjustable torque arm, lower control arm mounts, and adjustable shocks.Have you messed with the pinion angle at all??
What tires are you running?? MT drag radials?? Have you tried disconnecting the front sway bar?? Different tire pressures?? I'm sure you've tried heating the tires longer.
Is the car squatting evenly out back or to the passenger side?? Might need an airbag in the right rear (pass spring) if uneven.
