Default New Best
Got a new best for the car last night at the TTT5 T/S races at Kennedale. 5.60@121.47 on a 1.27 60ft on the 275/60 drag radials. The car ran a 5.78, 5.67, 5.63 and in the 2nd round it ran the 5.60. We had a 1.29 60ft then in the last pass it clicked off the 1.27 short time.

Despite how "mean" and "unrelentless" you have been to me in the past, I am giving you all AWESOME props on that car. I saw it run on Friday night. Not sure if you helped build it or not. Black/Navy TA, right? Please see post #915 in the "Official LS1Tech Member Sighting Thread".

Sounds like you have it running great, especially for the weather not being there. I havent heard hide nor hair of your car making a pass in a while. Thought you sold it or something.
