New personal best 1/4!!! PICS!!!
Took the car out for the first time in almost two years today
for a car club track event!!! I got a set of ET streets to replace my ET street radials to be a bit softer on the drivetrain...and I don't know what everybody complains about them being hard to drive, they were fine for me the whole way down the track!!! 
I out tree'd everyone I raced, even guys cutting better 60's; I still cut a light, and I won 2 outa 3 races against my friends blown 97 cobra even though he traps 3mph higher than me (both of us on street tires)....
Anyway... I ran a best of 12.28@115mph with a 1.7 60ft launching at the rev limiter (6150RPM). If I had a suspension setup not suited to road racing I would have been into the elevens with a 1.6 60ft for sure, but alas I don't, heh... Also, I'm still on stock clutch, stock 04 rear end with a couple bushing kits and a diff brace, and stock 04 3650. Literally, I launched and kept my foot down the whole time. This is AS MUCH as this car has in it with the suspension setup.... if I had a more forgiving setup it would have pulled the front, I think (with some weight reduction). I pulled the front sway bar also, which helped ALOT in weight transfer!!!
Oh yeah, also I ran a new personal best 60ft on street tires at 1.89 on Fuzion HRi all seasons in 245/45/17 (that's a 400 treadware all season ROFL!!!).
Anyway...here are some pics of me racing/launching with the IRS with road race suspension and MT et streets LOL

and awesome pictures
My first time out, two years ago, I ran 13.0 - it just takes practice slipping the clutch on the launch, then laying into it JUST the right amount
