Talking My apologies for no video

However...the best video will be taken at atco when i get deeper into the 12s, yes i said 12s. Car was at 3620 lbs with kasey's skinnies, full exhaust, 4.10 gears, and 255 bfg drag radials mounted on steelies. Also, this was at englishtown.

1st run
55*
front tires at 50psi, rears at 20
launched at 3500 and bogged HARD
60'.....2.037
330....5.666
1/8....8.626
MPH...82.58
1000..11.170
1/4....13.307
MPH...105.53

2nd run
57*
Tires same, launched from 4200 and bogged hard again
60'.....1.899
330....5.433
1/8....8.372
MPH...32.65
1000..10.909
1/4....13.045
MPH...105.59

3rd run
no temp
Tires same, launched at 4500 and still bogged
60'.....1.855
330....5.385
1/8....8.308
MPH...83.32
1000..10.831
1/4....12.955
MPH...106.17 NEW BEST

4th run
no temp
Tires same, launched at 4800 and finally didnt bog
60'.....1.820 NEW BEST
330....5.335
1/8....8.265
MPH...83.10
1000..10.792
1/4....12.920 NEW BEST
MPH...106.03

I still think i could have left a little harder on that last run, and the weather was probably somewhere near 60* so the car's still got more in it, and the next time ill be at atco, hopefully improving to a 12.70 or better.

congrats j0n!!!!
on the last run, did you dump the clutch or roll off it quickly?
you may wanna just want to drop the tires to 18psi and rip it from around 5500. if the clutch holds it that shoudl get you well into the 1.7's through the 60's.

you gotta stop by here so we can look at that intake idea i had. i wanna measure to see if it will work.
