I'm trying my best but i gotta chase down this darn vibration from the rear.

I'm hoping it's just the tires needing to be balanced again [Frown]

FoxGT is also a customer. As far as I know he is the fastest Cobra around and looking to go a lot faster. [Wink]

The only other 2, 10 second 03/04 Cobra's that I know of are JeffS old car, (which is in our shop now getting setup to go low 9's/high 8's), and sean04 who sold his Cobra. Last I heard, the new owner missed some gears and had some P2V contact. He is in the process of building a new motor of some sort.

Trixsnk have you tried someone else's drivshaft to see if that is the problem? The stock one's are notorious shakers. I just had my buddy's 95 go through the same problem and as soon as I let him borrow my FRPP shaft it went away. Good luck!

Oh BTW when the tires get old the inside seperates in the lining and there is no way to get around balancing, just have to get new tires. I asked a few of my buds that work at the tire dealers

Thanks for the advice as that was my next place to take a look ..........but i god the wheels re-balanced and it did turn out to be just that THANK GOD!

Must have tossed a wieght in the burnout box or maybe when i got some wheel hop on 1 of the runs.

Oh well the price you pay to go fast on the IRS [Roll Eyes]

I'm in the process of throwing on the 3.0" pulley and the quest goes on for the 10's

See you guys tomorrow!

Don't forget to say wassup when you see me.

Talk about a great day!

Great turnout very few cars....great weather....even better racing [Big Grin]

Here are the slips.....lots of stuff for me to figure out as the clutch seemed to be slipping on the last pass in the top of 4th which leads me to think that's where i lost a bunch of mph and some et. Clutch was very soft after that pass and just didn't feel like the first pass.

All runs were done with the 3.0" upper pulley and straight VP 100 in the tank.

1st pass:
19* timing just trying to get a feel for the new boost level.

 -

2nd pass:
21* timing best launch ever in the car 4500rpm dump and the best 60 ft ever as well. Sucks that the clutch couldn't hold it up top i'm sure it could have gone deeper into the 10's

 -

Had fun out there and nice to see everyone and congrats to all that ran well as there seemed to be a lot of fast cars out!
