New best time again.

Well today I ran Tasca Ford day at New England Dragway.

First run 11.258@120.25 with a 1.578 60ft.
second run 11.277@121.52 with a 1.586 60 ft

then they shut me down because of no Roll Cage

Mike and I are doing a cage and a motor over the winter. He never drives his car, it has like 5000 miles on it after 2 years

I broke into 12s in a big way yesterday too: 12.785 @ 107.1 with a 1.736 60'. Finally got the right lauch technique using a 2-step launch tune set at 5500 RPM, took off leaving my sneakers at the line.

Thanks guys.Just want to point out that when properly tuned you can run the nitrous hard.I have made about ten passes using the Zex 175 shot and just have a B.A.P as a fuel system.Car runs awesome with the spray except for blowing off the CAI filter most of the time .I think this is because of the throttle clossing for an instant during shifts causing a intake backfire.But it never hurt nothing.just had to put it back on after most runs.

Good work Mike! Your suspension is working really well. Forget replying to that old PM asking you about how the 17" ET Streets are hooking! Looks like you're dead hooked and rolling.
