The car also went 11.16@128 with a super soft 2k rpm launch which I found interesting. The only thing I can think of is I must have missed a shift point by a little bit and the outside temp went up a tad. But Im still pretty happy with it.

Thanks guys. It was really nice to reach that goal. Now if I can make it do that consistently I will be set.

Greg, It definately has more in it. That was leaving at 3k rpm and it just dead hooked and went. I cant wait to see what 3500 rpm does.

Kin, the heads must have done something. Either that or that 128 was a fluke, I dont know. I guess I will see next time I get it to the track. Hey what race are you gonna be going to?

Did I miss something on your "new best time" posting? I kinda remember a white Fox body going much quicker with a curly haired, very excitable, nice guy driving the car. Is that pass a secret?

Nate, yea that would be sweet!! Hopefully your car hooks turboed like it did n/a.

Kin, okay, I was thinking about going to Bremerton again this sat. and thought I might see ya there. Unfortunately its kind of difficult for me to go on friday nights working 2nd shift.

Brandon, excitable? I just get a little worked up when talking about people putting LS1s in fox bodies is all. Its just wrong.

Shouldn't be a problem with the UPR kit thats on the way, and the 200lbs of lead I got for the rear bumper....

Updated top 10 list, you're in the 6 spot now. Sweet.

I look forward to updating it this year with more 10 sec passes! Only one more 10 second pass to bump out the 11 second times.

The only thing I changed over the winter is I put on a set of X heads and got a new set of tires. Oh and I 31 splined the rear with an 03 cobra diff but that didnt make it any faster obviously.
Most of it is in the tires. Those drag radials I had last year had seen better days.
