I believe he may have 4.10s as well? I wish I could go back to the track and run it in the cooler weather, but I've put all that on hold until next year when I get the Spydershaft and some ET streets. I love my auto and have been really impressed since loading the custom tune

That's right near 100 lbs The entire back seat will drop another 22 lbs and can be taken out in under 10 minutes. The bottom just pops out using 2 clips on the front where it meets the carpet and only 2(1 each side)bolts hold the folding seats on the corners near the plastic trim panels.

Your times are definitely inspiring. Just wondering, what other mods do you have? Are you running on Mickeys? How was the weather?

yeah, they are. The track told me that would be my last time with these tires. I don't even think they are that bad. Just a little bald. Atleast it will give me the chance to try the sticky mickey's next year.

Very impressive, so you're on stock 3.31 gears then? Those headers must have been good for a few ponies. Have you dyno'd the car yet?

Your 108 mph trap speed tells me that your GT breathes VERY well once your car is going down the track. I've seen others with CAI's like yours, but no real exhaust mods, who only trap around 104-5 mph, so your exhaust must really be helping on the tall end of the track. My GT's 60' and 330' ET's are only a tenth slower than yours, but my 1/4 mile ET is a half second slower than yours. Guess it's time I invested in exhaust (totally stock front to rear currently).

Those are some impressive ET's my friend! I can't wait to take mine to the track... I've been wanting to run it stock, but the track doesn't re-open until next march

I guess the long tubes, mid pipe, CAI, tune, etc, etc, etc will have to wait for a little while longer....

Either way, congrats on the run, that's fantastic!

The weather was sunny and low to mid 70's. The only cloud in the sky came after watching the chevy guys shake their heads after they saw us run 4 passes all in the 12.7's. Per a reply a couple ago, I was on worn out bfg drag radials.

Very nice charlie I was wondering how the rest of the day went since you never got back to me. Looks like you have the tune pretty much dialed in. Did you make any more timing adjustments that day? I bet if you put Monica behind the wheel the weight savings will net you another .2 LOL

Actually, Monica is about 120 lbs lighter than me, so that should be atleast a tenth. As for the timing, I am locked out and can't adjust that at all. I can only mess with the fuel.
