Thats freak'n awsome!!!! This is with the heavy roll cage as well right? Reading your story makes me want to say F racing on the 20th and make it up one of these friday nights. I'm itching to see what a 5K dump feels like myself. Toss on some slicks, a better intake, maybe a 3 inch crank pulley and make the blower and nitrous guys look bad with some all motor 11 second slips on some measly 245 cfm heads!

Thanks guys, I woke up this morning still jazzed !!!Sawson, I am thinking about giving up on Wednesday and Grudge nights. Fridays are the least busy, best prepped, and there are rarely any rice. I would say that there were maybe 20 cars and 10 bikes last night. Like I said, I got there late and in 2 1/2 hours, got in 7 runs. The price for T&T is $37 and well worth the money. Grudge nights are $35 and you can rarely get lined up with the guy you want to race anyway. Gabriel,
My next planned mods are.....
Driveshaft safety loop
Reinforce the rear control arm mounts
Lakewood bellhousing
Pad the rollbar, etc....
I need to address the safety shit first because as much as the car weighs and as hard as the car is launching, shit is going to start breaking.
After that, I am going to work on my suspension, rims and tires
I want to do a cheap 5 lug conversion (lincoln rotors and aftermarket axles)
Time for some Weld Prostars and ET streets or drags
Also want to get a tubular K-member to lighten the front end. Brian

SSSWWWEEEETTTT! Alright man, good runs. I wish I had been there. I was gonna head down with some friends too. I didn't think anyone was gonna be there. Oh well. So, are friday nights going to be the new nights to go? It sure seems like there is less drag traffic. Anyway, great job, I can't wait until my car is running that fast. BTW, how do you like those Nittos? I used a set of BFG drag T/A's and when I launched and tried to dump the clutch, they just burned out. Are the Nitto's better?

If you don't hit an 11 on slicks this winter I'll eat my hood paint-chips.  btw, if you're rolling on 4-lugs, I have a set of ET streets 26x10.5" (8.5" actual) that I can lend to the cause. They're on convo-pros (drag rims).
maybe 50 passes on them, and st5150's attempts at jacking the sidewall notwithstanding! edit: you may be required to run some 'ghetto' tricks like ram-air, no belt, etc. etc. sorry, but gotta do what you gotta do. Then again, pull a 1.5x 60', catch 2nd in mid-air, and you'll get there anyways probably. [ October 01, 2001: Message edited by: stocker ]

Or you can borrow my tires for a pass or two on the 20th. I think you should take off those Nitto's since they have less tread left on them than stockers' ET streets
