Good job man. I'm sure the drag suspension helped with your time, but have done anything to lighten your GT?
Thanks for the comments Simi The suspension can be a little more refined.. the springs arent that great for this combo, i believe the 4-cylinder springs are too low in the front to store any sort of energy, i believe they have been cut, i got them for 20 dollars from a local wanna-be mustanger... and the rear BBK springs are too stiff.. Im almost ready to switch the springs to Moroso Trick Drag Springs and install a Wolfe Racecraft Anti-Roll Bar.. hopefully that will drop my 60' a little (i was only launching at 3k in the 12.99 pass), as for lightening, it just has a few items deleted, the fog light bar, front sway bar, rear counter weight on the rear end, and of course the all important Weld Draglite wheels... (15x3.5/15x8)

Hope that helped
