thanks mike, my previous best was 12.9 at 110. so not the improvment i was looking for tonight but it will do for now. i think the new duals and torque arm might help me once i get them on. by the way how is your rearend coming?

You'll get there man. If you can get the 60' down to around 1.8x or so you'll really feel the difference. PIR doesn't exactly have the best track prep either lol..... especially this time of year with no real rubber down yet.
Car is coming along SLOW. I tried to work on it today but my back was telling me to **** off. Sucks because the weather has been so nice and I can't even enjoy that.

Joe, Mike is 100% right I have been to pir when it was a warm summer day and they prep'ed the track great and it hooked great and late last yr it was cooler w/shorter days and little to no prep and it was like it was Ice there... for example the night I speak of I ran a run of 13.1 @ 119mph.. so I know what your sayn about your numbers not adding up. so a bit more practice for you. BUT mainly you just need better conditions... just wait you'll see what we mean but hey a new pb is a new pb...
