Default New Best.

We took my car to KDale yesterday afternoon and it ran a new best of 5.45@129.5 on a 1.29 60ft, it's finally starting to get there. Also saw fasttagurl there and several other 4th gens.

Thank you, all of the guys at PBR did a great job on it. We've had some issues along the way but it's finally starting to come around and run the numbers it's capable of running and it still has more in it. I would like to see it run some 5.3x's in the mid 130 mph range.

We kept looking at your car cause it looked bad a__. Always like flat black. I can't believe you managed to hook after all the oil downs they had. I spun all night and ran 6.40s with a NA 347...

Thanks. I think the 1st we lined up next to you, it spun hard coming out of the hole, he peddled it and got back in it and then it nosed over at about half track. We adjusted the tire pressure and it cut a 1.30 on that pass, adjusted tire pressure again and it cut a 1.29 60ft on the 5.45 pass but your right about the oil downs, we only got 3 passes in.

What kind of suspension (shocks/springs) do you use? Mine needs upgraded badly, I can only cut a 1.39 60". Maybe mini-tub too.
