Irwindale This Thursday
If any of you saw my one run, I had a weak 60', lost a bit of traction on the 1-2 shift from bald tires, and 2-3 shift slipped twice before going into 3rd. The trans works, it just doesn't like racing.
It's an auto. No more racing until I get the trans rebuilt, and decent tires, and a rear end that doesn't grind, and a proper tune. lol. Ran about what I expected it to run in such shitty shape... 8.6
It was running 8.2s last time I was there, before the rebuild.

LOL, thanks for being... positive. 
Don't want to put tire under it until I get my 9 inch. I've been trailered home from the track before... not fun.
I went 7.74 last week on a 1.90 60', which equates to roughly 12.0-12.1. So If I can squeak into the 11.90's at the Famoso track rental this month, I will be super happy with that...
Looking at my previous time slips, the car gained AT LEAST 24 mph on the big end (from 1/8 to 1/4). That was with a smaller cam and LS6 intake (now has a FAST 102 intake), so I think it should pull a bit harder on the top end now.
So, shooting for 11.90's at 120-121 mph at Famoso. And yes, I know that's a pretty lame ET for the MPH.

Hey man,
Unfortunately I don't have our run on film. The track wasn't hooking and all my runs sucked, so I stopped filming after a few runs.
Here's the vid though!
