Not posting my times, they were bad. I stalled the car on my burnout and had troubles with them all night. Not to mention all the traction problems I had. I need a 4.6 driver to teach me how to launch my car.

On a good note I picked up 1.5mph out of my Throttle Body. My ET on that run, they have it as a 8.36 [Big Grin] at 101.86 but I think it was a high 13.8. It was all down hill after that.

Hey, I hear this guy Micky Thompson can teach you how to launch your car real well. He's at the track every day [Wink] [Big Grin] 1.5 MPH is a nice gain for just a TB. Did you pick up any 1/8th mile MPH as well?

I had no problems w/ traction at all...

Of course, I was racing my new Co. car- Chebby Trailblazer, 2wd.

Care to guess the ET? 4400lbs, 4.6L I-6, 270hp,270tq, 4.10's, bone stock.

Then again, who cares...

Yeah-
I had at least 5 ricers stop and ask me what I had done to it to make it so fast. I just laughed and said "Nothing, It's called torque!"
