tarinitup thanks!

Thanks Alex. I'm probably done with that 1/8, to damn far, come out for the 1/4.

Javier glad you came out! Thanks for the pit support which only involved a torque wrench for one loose lug and some seeds ha. Drive it there full weight, line up in the pit, run and drive it home right after. Not one adjustment.

Thanks Pat I'm slowly chasing you down ha. I know I won't catch you though. Once you get your truck back up I could see some low 11 passes.

A little different than when you first saw it Art.

Thanks Bumpers. 1/4 will be soon. CA sucks for tracks and track dates. One 1/4 an hour away and once a month if that.

Ya Lee I need to bracket race again my R/T's and E/T's are always consistent. I cut two decent lights at .582 and .602, but the last one against that turbo RX7 I was switched up my launch so that doesn't count ha.

Congrats on almost getting him. The Vipers are animals.
it sounds like your setup falls off at the top end. my 7.43@88mph 1/8 converters to 11.5@118mph 1/4

It does. It won't shift out of 4x4 unless I lift. My gearing was also not optimal, but I'm working on that.
