That was the most cars I had seen on Friday in ALONG time.

Couldnt get down the track myself... I guess all the rain from the past few weeks and all the radial tires were tearing the track up.

Had fun talking with some old friends though. Maybe next time Ill try some wheelstands, lol.

haha thats funny, Ill run him at the track when I get scott to weld my manifold again. Hey Frost, I did run one of the RPM cars I assume twice once he ran like an 11.6 then the next pass was like a 10.6 or something. I still have alot of things I need before Im ready to run any good times (bigger slicks, a good manifold, more boost)

I dont have any videos. I only got to make 4 passes the best of which was a 12.3 @ 112 or 113 with a 1.9 60ft bouncing off rev limiter in 4th (8700-9000 whatever matt set it at) on 22" slicks. Car was tuned on 16 psi off wastegate but I seemed to have a leak in my manifold on the wastegate flange only making it hit 14 psi. Once I get my boost controller to stop spiking to 28-30psi with it completely shut I will get tuned for high boost.

Yeah he's a really good friend of mine. His first run was a shake down, no bottle, and hitting it from idle. I have video of all of RPM & friends passes, so you are in those 2 runs of his car.

Did you get the lsd put in? Stock axles? I need to get my damn axles and injectors good, so I can put this bitch on 14lbs before I sell it.

cant wait to see the vids. I think I can pull some 10.4's as it is if I can whittle my 60' down any. My car was unloading way too fast. I lost 1-1.5mph going to 28" tires. I'm getting a better feel for the new suspension and rear. I may try to attack LCA angle, instant center, sway bar preload, front height, go back to stock rear shocks, etc. My car is a pig at 3650lbs raceweight, still with AC and all interior panels and both seats. I wasnt able to scan with my laptop during my passes so i dont know where I was shifting at. it's a guess at this point. I cant wait till the next time. Hopefully it goes more smoothly then. Thanks again to Amsterdamn and Frost for the video efforts!
