I've got a good idea of how to do it the next time though.

How'd you and that terminator do, Chris?
I saw you had some good runs. Sounds loud as hell too

Well I beat him all 3 runs. That was some of the best racing I have ever had. Our cars were basically equal both cars ran great thanks Mike for the good times. We will be back and both running on tire. Here was the rundown:

1st run:
ME HIM
60' 1.88 2.09
1/4 13.30 13.74
MPH 110 110
Both cars were spinning bad. I lost my clutch from slipping it too much. Smelled like shit. (bad ass 60' though )

2nd run:
ME HIM
60' 2.17 2.09
1/4 12.73 12.70
MPH 115 115
Both cars spun but was able to pull through.

3rd run:
Not worth mentioning both burned the shit out of the tires.

His car has went a 11.79 on drag radials. Next time we will both be on drag radials. All in all fun time

Can't wait to go again. I'm going to remove the stock paper air filter and air box assy, next time and bump up my fuel pressure. I'm trying to squeeze out the most fuel out of them suckers. I also need suspension so I can launch like that dude 3codegt. 2.2 sixty foot times really suck. Need to get to 11's before I put the Turbo on. Thinking about buying tubular K-member kit, That'll drop about 50 pounds up front and relocate the battery to the rear.
