The car was flashing to 5K, and started breaking up around 5500. We'll get it sorted out before spring.

With what your doing, I'll be the least of your worries... Your wheels are ready to be picked up when you want them.

The new wheels look awesome! The weight savings combined with your new power should be interesting. Do you think your issue is rpm/spark related?

Nice number nate, hope you get the other issues worked out. Looks like Santa was nice to you. And you were worried about the bump being 9 seconds in the DR class

Ya, I'll get the car calmed down in the upper rpm range, then take it back to the dyno to get some after numbers. Also, looking into a converter soon... It never ends....

Maybe, not sure yet. I don't like the way they feel on the street though, too wishy-washy... I'll have some 235's by spring time.

Yea I didnt care much for that with my old ET streets either. The Hoosier QTPs are much better in that respect and also hook better imo.

I've always wanted to try a set on the track, and they came with the wheels so maybe I'll wait to see how they do this spring. I will have radials for our HeadsUpNorthWest track days.

Well, I took a couple of valve springs off and had them tested, came up alittle soft. I am able to shim them though, so we'll see if that helps the topend charge.
