You're jonesin for some racing action aren't you? Keep at those books, young man! Once finished you will have mucho cash to use for go-fast stuff. Brian is not happy (but that is his story to tell.)I did not improve on my best. Need more driver training. LOTS of trailered cars and the broke A LOT! Closed left lane for at least 1/2 the day. Then traction sucked over there once it was open. Had 4 runs- no changes. 1st- 16psi 60ft- 2.038- some spin, 4500rpm ET- 13.786 @ 100.491mph 2nd- 12.5psi (sat in lane close to an hour and one tire leaks- Brian eq'd them for me but meant to run at 14psi) 60ft- 2.057- small bog, 4700rpm ET- 13.785 @ 100.590 3rd- 13.5psi 60ft- 1.970- bad spin, went sideways, 4700rpm MISSED 4th! ET- 13.83 @ 94.853 4th- Bad bog- don't want to talk about it. Yellow94GT ran a 13.5! Mark came and watched w/ his lovely daughter and german shephard but left his GT at home. Big Finale! Kevin Locke ran - 9.62!!!! on his last licensing pass. He is now NHRA legal to run nines. VERY cool. (Procharger D2 blown/intercooled 331ci coupe, drag radiALS, THRU EXH., DRIVEN TO TRACK! ) Jim L.

Wait, there's more...... It also put a big dent in the floor under the rear seat, hit my fuel line and almost crimped it shut, and probably fucked up the output shaft of my 7 week old transmission. The new yoke slid all the way in prior to today's activities, but now, it won't. Since the yoke still looks good, somethings fucked in the tranny

Today was a great day for me. I improved on every pass! My best was a 13.575! My previous best was a 14.001! Tenth of a second improvemment isn't bad for an intake. I was getting good 60's all day long also, best there was a 1.872. Thas on drag radials with a 35 series sidewall and stock suspension. I think I could have managed a better 60, but I had to race those damb traylor queens all day long and I couldn't hear a damn thing! I still think I have a little room for improvement. With this combo.

I meant to say that .5 seconds from an intake isn't bad, not 1 tenth.

Do I have to tell you the mph? Well I guess I should. It was only 99.8 mph! I'm still not making much HP, and my car is 3650 lbs. with me in it!

DAMN! I keep leaving stuff out. It is a cobra intake. Port matching it didn't hurt the performance either,

Well guys, here is my new signature. Doubt if you think I my driving was very good now. PS I had the E303 when I was still running 14.001. The intake was the missing link
