My track times went as follows. <br /><br />.524 rt. <br />1.965 60ft. <br />12.580 et. <br />109.254mph. <br /><br />.510 rt. <br />1.808 60ft. <br />12.409 et. <br />109.976mph. <br /><br />.570 rt. <br />1.840 60ft. <br />12.512 et. <br />105.805mph. <br /><br />The last run sucked because I was trying to bracket against an 8 second car so I hit the brakes at the end, then realized that the 160mph car was catching me really fast lol. And I almost pushed the car past the staging beams because my stall was'nt working. I easily had a 13.3 on that run too IMO. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Elapid</b> <br /><small>Member # 50</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2003,9,19,13,25,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> guess you'll have to change your sig!<br />congrats! <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Fast472Mach1</b> <br /><small>Member # 2559</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2003,9,19,14,13,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> lol good point.

I need to run a colder plug and maybe move the timing another degree. I'm getting a slight miss at about 6300 rpm up until 6500 when I shift so I'm losing some there. Also, my "stall" convertor is'nt stalling at all so I need a new one I guess. I'm hoping for 12.0's or 11.9's on motor but I think I'm going to be closer to the 12.0.

I think the car will do a 1.6 on slicks. I've only ran the car about 6 times ever I believe and was pushing it harder each time I ranthis time around. I use Cal-tracs on the back with HD springs and KYB shocks. The front are just 620 coils and KYB's. Since the Cal-tracs make the entire car lift instead of squat, it has'nt affected it really. The cal-tracs are adjusted 1 turn preload and it left straight so I never changed them. But your more then welcome to offer some help.
