I tell ya it is really crazy. The suspension reacts to every little change and figuring that out can take many runs. When I did the Goodyear test a few days ago I started wheel hopping. Never happened before. I add one pound of air and it launched like glass.

Keep it up...your getting real close !!

badass times bro....those 5.3's got alot more than u expect in them, my 5.3 has 105,000 miles on it and it's still kicking, best time has been 11.10@123 with a 1.57 60' and a 7.0 1/8 mile.... hope u can make it to the shootout... good luck

well yea. but it definately wont be all at once. i will do a two stage setup and most of my passes are 1/8 mile so its not as bad as the 1/4. once i feel i have got every last drop out of it and i get that 7.0 or 6.9 ill take it to 1/4. but i plan to do everything possible to hit that 6.9
