Well I took the new combo to the track last night and was a little disappointed, but know there is more room for improvement. Had some clutch issues hurting me big time, and it was my first time ever on real slicks. Car went a best of 12.1 at 110.5 mph on motor with a 1.68 60ft, and 11.3 at 119.5 with a 1.65 60ft on a 100 shot. Will post some slips later when I get home. On motor the car would hook hard and then bog pretty bad with 5k-5,500 launches. Nitrous felt a lot better but fought clutch slippage worse there. I am going to take the trans out and take a look at the clutch and go from there. The clutch was making for some difficult shifting as well. I think this thing has a few more mph in it for sure.

now I feel really bad cause I was trapping 115 and ran like a 12.2 lol. Still not a bad time man. Get your clutch fix and get. Back out and run some 10's. Good luck man
