Gotta go back to the drawing board to get this thing to hook i should be seeing LOW 1.70's at least.
Was yours the Pewter truck? If so I walked over and looked at it once but you weren't around. Nice truck.

You really picked it up after I left Mark. The best pass I saw was the 12.70 you and the other black truck ran together. Good to see everyone yesterday and put a few faces to names.

Sure did have fun...even though i couldn't get a good 60' . Had a couple fun runs with Mark, one in particular In the end it was close. He ran 12.708 @ 107.28 I ran 12.702 @ 119.76 . It was the best time i've ever had at the track, wish i would have got around more and met some of the other guys. I was to busy trying to sort out some problems. My truck was pulling timing for some reason , no KR.

He won by .1473

It was a pleasure to meet you sir.

Yeah, when I ran Curtd I hit the rev limiter at the end in 3rd about 100 ft. short thus the slow time and MPH. I just managed to get it into 4th gear the best pass. I'm used to running through in 3rd with the tractor tires on the back.

Hey man, not sure what you're going to look for as far as cam specs go, but if I like the way the 5.3 heads and LS6 cam end up working out I'll have my 235/239-600/580-113+4 for sale.

Your 14.10 is better than the 14.9 I ran N/A on my 408!
