First pass 14psi in the E.T. Streets which I drove down from Redding on ![[worship]](graemlins/worship.gif)
Spun like a bitch off the line to the tune of a 2.021 60ft, missed second gear not once, but twice and ran it out to a 13.425 @ 108.664 ![[Roll Eyes]](rolleyes.gif)
The next three runs were with 9.5psi in the tires
12.386 @ 110.545 w/1.738 60 ft new best mph on motor
12.222 @ 111.927 w/1.761 60 ft NEW BEST ET AND MPH on motor
12.357 @ 109.359 w/1.712 60 ft Hit second gear and got really close to the center line but just powered through it ![[Wink]](wink.gif)
You gotta love great weather !!!! I'm sure upgrading to 4.10's, and the Flaming River manual rack helped a little
![[Whoo Whooooo!]](graemlins/woowoo.gif)
Unfortunately, my nitrous system wasn't working right so I got no "bottle" passes ![[Frown]](frown.gif) The bottle would have produced a 10 second timeslip or a shitload of tire smoke in all 4 gears ![[burnout]](graemlins/burnout.gif)

Yes, I have !!!! She weighs 3330 as of today (down from a previous 3435
Future plans include,
AJE Tubular K-member
Coil overs front and rear
Meziere electric water pump w/ idler pulley
COMPLETE A/C and heater system delete
Rear seat delete
Center console thingy delete
Light weight race seats
Removal of the Mild Steel rollbar and replace with a chrome moly cage
All of these are more dreams than "plans" for right now, but we'll see what happens

But I only ran a 12.62 @ 106 on the motor the day I ran 11.24 @ 122 on the bottle. so to me it seems that picking up 1.38 seconds that day would have EASILY been a 10.90 @ 125-126 yeasterday
