Dragstrip this weekend. Going for the 9!
Well guys i picked up a pair of 25X8.7X13 m&h slicks and car is ready to go running 100%. I did some final adjustments this weekend dropping the fuel pressure down from 55psi to 48psi, got the a/f steady 11.5-11.8:1 at WOT 30psi of boost.

Gonna give it a shot at the 9's, and will only get probably 1 pass before getting booted but hey its all for the fun. Thats the reason i go. Represent and have some fun.

I plan to run the slicks at 8psi and do a nice 2nd gear burnout to heat them up, They are slightly used so they are already broken in.

Car is running absolutely awesome and i feel as long as i can hit the shifts quick and not break the trans that it should be a good night.

Wish me luck.

Good luck. Lets see the potential our cars really have. Are you using any kind of drag suspension, traction bars, etc?

Well its gonna have to wait till next weekend but im still picking up the slicks on friday. I just have some stuff that came up. But either way should be good.

Rob, the car went 11.1@132 during the summer on 24psi before the intake manifold and Q45 TB and on bad slicks still spinning almost halfway down the track. Should be a much better go around this time out. Its definetly pulling a hell of a lot harder than it has ever pulled before now that everything is situated and with the 6psi more boost and manifold.

I figure if i can pull a 1.5X 60ft which is possible and hit all shifts quick without breaking i should be very darn close if not hit it. We will see.
