Thanks for all the replies everyone..
mystang - yea the car is a blast to drive on the street. The power comes on fast and stays with the car till over6k rpms. With the 6spd tranny, highway cruising isnt bad at all. I have the stock 3.55 gears still, and with all the power it puts down racing from a roll in 4th gear at low rpms is more then enough to pull on most cars, which is a blast
Joe - I had originally planned to pull the IRS in favor of a solid axle, but with the way this thing launchs im not touching it. It launchs very well, and handles even better. Its nice to goto the track run 11's, then go through some twisties on the way home. What a great all around car.
And no i havent had the VC off yet, and hopefully i never have to!
Swinginline - i go through the traps in 4th gear, im not sure what rpm, i didnt really pay attention to it. Ill pay closer attention to it next time up.
Low 5.0 - Yea i think 11's on the street tires whould be easy. Im so close as it is, just shifting a tiny bit faster would be more then enough to get me a 11.999. I dunno if ill actually try though, i rather shoot for a 11.40 on the DR's for braging rights
Dave - let me know your outcome, ill be very interested in it.. You have DR's right? Just make sure if u get any wheelhop to get off the gas immediatly. And yea get that pulley already!! And send the eaton to apten.
Vibrant - the irs realy launchs well, unlike what most people say. I guess having the bushings, shocks, and subframes makes all the difference though.
Rio - Yea we will set up a day to all make it up to the track for a final run before winter..
I do have a vid of my 11 second run, ill try to post it up later.. Its pretty low quality though. Charlie video taped it with his digital camera. I was racing my friends 10 second race car.
