Thumbs up

Well, the second trip to the strip fared better. My best was a 14.8 @ 96mph. My 60ft was only a 2.28. I managed to get a 2.17 on another pass, but I somehow messed up shifting into 4th (stupid aint it!!), therefore ruining the run. I was very pissed!! My 1/8 time was 2.5 tenths faster than the 14.8 pass!!! I wanted to give myself a swift kick in the rear for that one!!
I found that I hooked up best with 18 pounds in the rear tires and taking off around 1700 rpm. The car would spin for about 5 feet and then take off. I am getting better and am shooting for 14.5's next time!!!!
I also have a pair Steeda subs w/cross braces sitting in my apartment just waiting to be welded on . That damn car is a paycheck magnet!!! By the way thanks for the advice everybody..
