+1 for the get together. some friendly grudge racing before the track shuts down for the season wouldn't be bad either.

I'll try to make it Josh. You guys need to hit RRR tomorrow night.

01ssreda4, the th224 cam is killer. I just took my TSP 228/588 back out and put the th224 back in. I've gone 11.29 with it and never come close to matching it with the bigger cam.

funny you mention that. after having this cam for a little while and logging some miles on it, lemme give you some impressions. it runs great, but just doesn't give me the hey, im a low eleven second cam feeling. could be my imagination but it only seems slightly faster then before. from a 50 punch it still seems really slow compared to say hilton's car. cody says chris' car runs/feels very fast as well. both of them have far better gear ratios then me plus 6 speeds. maybe the auto/3.23 makes for boring acceleration. greg seems to think the car runs strong. i dont know maybe i need some heads now or possibly a 12 bolt with a 3.73 to spice things up.

Just run it. That's the only way you'll know for sure. I would say with a good set of tires you'd be mid to high 11's since your a full weight car. I'm guessing more in the mid 11's though.

Damn sorry fellaz, I aint logged onto Tech in a WHILE. The October date for the get together sounds awesome, count me in! Also, I'd like to get a few runs in at RRR. I haven't tried to get an ET under my belt since installing the mods so long ago.
