I got to the track late so I only got to make 2 passes. Went 10.86 @ 125 on motor. Second pass I put the 150 jets in it hoping to get me a high 9 pass but spun bad. Went 10.19 @ 137 with a 1.67 60ft. My bottle heater quit working so by the time I got to the line and purged bottle pressure had done fell to around 820.
Shane how much does your s-10 weigh in at? Its good to see so many people show up at the track to help support it, hopefully they will see they need to be staffed a little better (More staff) to get people through the staging lanes faster.....It was a great day cause nobody i know broke! haha

I'll be glad when I get mine back together. I get excited to hear everyone running well, but I hate watching.
On that note, I've gotten the fenders on and lined up, onto the rest as time and weather permits. Didn't realize how much tweaking you can/need to do on these cars to get things to line up. It's coming along good though. All I have left is to put the fenderwells back in and bolt the front bumper cover on, lights, few more brackets and some tweaking. Although it's a straight forward procedure, I'm taking my time and getting every line as close to perfect as I can get it. The metal work came out perfect I think, considering the damage the deer made on the front corner. I'll put up some pics after I'm done.

Yeah, but I'm not sure when. At the earliest, for my bday in january and at the latest will be spring when it starts warming up. I have a cousin that paints, and should have a heated shop so it may get done here soon.
How long ago was that? Mine has been on ramps with the front cap disassembled for over a month now and I can't hardly stand it anymore. Once it's back together, I've got to drop the tranny again since this LS7 clutch isn't right. It's engaging right off of the floor, so I'm gonna put my shim from my SPEC in it so I can drive the thing without issue...............I hope.
