Drove to silver dollar, got there at about 3:00 and the mustang guy was there, i bolted on the slicks and we went to the lanes. after waiting an hour or so we finally race. i launched at around 5000, spun a little bit, hit 2nd at 6000 or so spun a slight bit then finished the rest of the gears at about 6600. I ran a
7.45@ 93.27 1/8th and 1/4 was a 11.65@117.2 with a 1.67 60' stock ls1 intake and no pulley!!! MUHAHAHAHA. cobra ran 11.8@114.6 with a 1.72 60'. very good race i edged him out pretty nice tho . l

All in all though we had a nice time, even though they all thought we were spraying nitrous... "check his ashtray!!" lol it was cool though. props to the cobra though he kept up really well.

Ahh man.. I am happy.
So I deal with these guys for 2 1/2 weeks talking **** telling me they will whip the hell out of my car... and how he beat me on the street.. which he didn't. But I am not here to talk ****... in the end they were very respectful...
Craig already posted the final times.. 11.65 @ 117.27 with a 1.67 60"
Craig believes it has a little more in it.. since it was LS1 intake.. stock pulley... and stock torque arm...
We have skinnies we can run on the car next time, problem is just grinding the calipers to get them to fit... figure thats worth a 10/th or two.
Car without driver was 3360, with craig and final raceweight was just over 3500.
