well i first run i had to hit the breaks and let off twice due to the car aiming for the wall, ended w/ a

1st pass
12.5 @114 hit a 1.61 60' leaving at 5500

this is due to what i kinda expected, a bent and/or cracked stock TA and posibly the rear sway bar. so i took my buddy's advice after thinking it over and adjusted the LR to 13psi and the RR to 15. this got it straight resulting in a

2nd Run
11.9 @ 119 w/ a 1.71 60' leaving at 4k.

3rd run same tire pressure launched at 5k
60'- 1.68
330'- 4.884
1/8-7.537
MPH- 92.30
1000'- 9.804
1/4- 11.691
MPH- 120.47

4th run
NEW BEST......
tire pressure 12psi LR 14 psi RR
launched at 5k
60'- 1.677
330- 4.873
1/8- 7.516
MPH- 92.54
1000'- 9.776
1/4- 11.657
MPH- 120.70

i was on my ET Streets. in street trim, pass seat,carpet, front sway bar left in the car.

now for a TA,Rear Drag Sway Bar,K-Member,A-Arms,race battery and the above items removed.

i will see a 11.0/10.9 pass cam only.

not bad for the first nite out.

oh yeah and btw i blew a header gasket on the second pass, and got worse each run.

11.60's are nothing to be ashamed of! good work, get that 60ft down (like 1.50 area) and you are going to be very near your goal in good da'.

btw your 60' 's look ok, but weak for your setup imho. maybe you were spinning or not killing it out of the hole? dunno but with the 4.10 and that power/weight i'd expect easy 1.5x's. hell on the motor i get low 1.7's/ high 1.6's most of the time- and my gears suk! on the juice mid to high 1.5's..
