A few of us went out to TRRP tonight. DA was 2600+ tonight. My best was an 11.75 at 118. Calculations show I should be running 11.2-3's in some good air. Overall the car ran great I think. I need some seat time for sure but, it'll come back quickly.

Here's one of my better passes

Yeah the M/T radials really impressed me. This is the first drag radial that I've ever hooked on. I'm sure suspension played a big role and not to mention track prep was indeed the best I've seen in a long time. Can't wait to go again but gotta get another tire and a better clutch before the cooler weather gets here. I'm ready for faster times and some daylight under them tires.

I honestly think you may have gotten a little daylight, but there is still more in the car I think.

As a tip to anyone, MWC bumper supports fit fantastic. My girl is trimming down and shaping up

Definitely more in the car with just seat time. I'm not gonna mess with the tune any unless the times don't come down with better air. A new Spec 3 will solve the launching woes. I think my shifting was about as good as it gets.

Thank you sir. Steve (01redssa4) happened across them in classified section last week and gave me a heads up. $1,000 plus a drive to dallas and back for some Bogarts was too good to pass up. I'm diggin the deep dish look.

It was dumb luck I saw them. I rarely visit the classifieds. Perfect timing/opportunity, guess it was meant to be

Chris, I was cutting consistent 1.65's on a stock arm lol. The LS7 clutch did good with a 4500rpm launch. I tried one 5500rpm launch and it didn't like that at all. I have a UMI arm sitting in the living room but, haven't had to time to stick it in. Once I get that and another Spec 3 in, I should easily see some 1.5's and possibly some 1.4's with some 6k dumps.
