I went to the track friday night to see how the car would do... The temp was 65* , bara was 30.00, and the humidity was 49%... The car weighed 3858 with out me in it and i weigh 215 pounds with 275/40/17s all the way aroumd with closed borla the car went 1.874 - 60 foot , 7.924@88.56 in the 1/8th and 12.330@112.15 in the 1/4 The car ran strong as hell.. This was N/a no power adder yet... I launched the car at idle and still spun through the 60-foot mark with nittos.. I guess its time for slicks and skinnies and get rid of the stock torque arm and buy a spohn .....Thanks Joe Overton for the cam and all the help... I still need to get the car on a dyno and tune it this is with a mail order tune...Then i will open the bottle

Nice times. Mine is 3910 with me in it. Do you have a roll bar yet? What's the elevation in Lafayette? I'm sure it'll be a raped ape on the juice. Good job.

TonyJ the elevation at the track is 663 feet...No roll bar yet.. The track i run at doesn't really go by NHRA rules.. I thought they would have kicked me out but they never did...I need to make the car hook up hard all motor then i will spray it.. I want to leave the line on the spray a 150 shot....

Nice job Chris. I think you would see a gain in HP and TQ by opening the cutout. I picked up 20/20 on the dyno just opening up the Borla.
