Finally starting to cool down a lil bit here! Went to Moroso and tried running w/ the tono cover on for more traction. It did make it hook up better. My 60 times didn't go down a whole bunch but i was able to dump it at 4,000 rpm and a lil wheel spin for a second then floor it to the top of 1st. Truck was not bogging off the line one bit but it would launching at anything mid to low 3000 range. Gotta put the cal tracs in and get some 150 jets when I get back from Brazil which i leave tomorrow for.

Anyways I ran (3) 12.7 passes and (2) 12.6 passes with the 125 shot in- still stock timing. There was another Black 05 RC there. Guy from Port St. Lucie who has a speed shop. He had gibsons, a paxton and DC flash and he made one pass at 12.6 and a few 13 somethings. I told him about the forum.....but he is one of those guys that just looks but doesn't post:dontknow: He is down for a GTG though I'm sure I'll see him again up there and he can run in the dial ins so we can run heads up!

My bro finally got his CTSV to hook up on his 100 shot once his bottle was getting low.....he ran a 12.2! My other friend w/ an 06 stang and 100 shot ran 12.0!

One of my best friends is from Sao Paulo and asked me to be his best man in his wedding there.....he is marryiing a girl form there as well. Going for 10 days going to the beach also to surf and kite board then to the formula one! Probably some clubbin too and some brazilian massages!:rock:

No he was stock tires....but he did have 456 gears to my 410's. His best 60 was a 1.9 also

ROTFLMAO!!!! Uhhhhh yeah probably should edit that one! How was your experience down there for the fight??

The food was unbelievable......:rock: ....the exchange rate makes most things seem like a bargain...but I wouldn't wear a flashy watch no matter what people may say....
 
Great times!!!! with that MPH and some slicks you could be at an 11.8 as you are:rock:
 
Congrats

Awesome Runs
 
I'd venture to say that ALL of that improvement had to do with cooler temps and the fact that you a are used to driving her on the juice now. Great job..! maybe the additional weight in the rear due to the tonneau....
 
still in brazil....having fun but i miss my truck! things are good here the food, the girls, the beach, the girls.....you get the idea?!

I will be putting on my cal tracs on sunday when i return. going to try to get up to the track again on Wednesday. I wonder how much imporvement on the ET if i can get to the 1.8-1.7 60 foot range.
