Thanks guys!

Nice! only .18 away from a 9 sec slip!

That would be nice! I'll probably shoot for low e.t. at the end of the year. Once we get the 60' where it should be, we'll be closer.

Here is a video, as you can see it wasn't leaving hard at all. There is a Camaro in the video as well!

Thanks again guys! The goal is to keep it consistent so I can do some racing but being closer than I thought I would be to the 9's, I look forward to playing around at the end of the year to see what we can do!

Thanks for the pic! I was doing good all day. Got a new best 10.15@131, a 1.44 60' and the car was deadly. Second round the guy in front of me broke, front wheel drive car and leaked some fluid. They cleaned it up with a rag and said it was good. As soon as my back tires got to where he was staged I spun like crazy and that was the end of my day. I was against a SOM WS6 not sure if he is on here as well.

*NEW BEST Update 4/21/13

1.43 60'
6.36@107 1/8
10.04@132 1/4

The best 60' was on a different pass, car went 10.06 on that pass.
Gonna send out the converter to get loosened up so we can get the 60' down and hopefully dip into the 9's!
