Always nice when you get a new best, no matter how small of a gain it is.

very glad to see your 4l80e is performing flawlessly Roger. To confirm, this is just the stock 80e and HD2 shift kit, correct?

Stock 80e, HD2 kit and a sprinkle of pixy dust.

First pass of the day. Soon as I arrived and go unloaded. I was able to basically drive right up to the line and go after I go unloaded.

60' 1.68
1/8 7.41 @ 92.0
1/4 11.68 @ 114.3

A whopping .03 better than previous best but I'll take it considering this is with the 80e. The trans performed perfectly all day.

Way to go man, running strong

Congrats on a new best Roger! I think my times were close between the 60 and 80, just a bit more mph with the 80E.

Amen. Kicking and scratching for every tenth is totally acceptable.

Nice work Roger. Get that timing up a bit and I am sure you will pick up a ton! Keep us posted.
