i hope you are correct..not this weekend but next weekend she is going to the track.....i will give my full ET..As a matter of fact i will try to scan a copy of the slip and post when i go..

---i will take a 5.93....yeeeeeeeeahhhhhhh..

i hope my chassis adjustment will help some (alot) put some rake in the chasiss, put 4 clicks into the front shocks,,went up 1 shock hole on the rear shocks..putting the car back on scales with driver to re-set wheel weights..

i also had a set of WORN OUT 14x32 tires with 14 inch wheels last time out..they had 14 inch tread patter ( foot print)..

went back with 15 inch wide wheels and a 17x33 tire (same roll out height" as the 14x32 so my gear deal will not change) ..and this gives me close to a 17 inch tread pattern (foot print)..this gives me 3 inches more rubber per tire contacting the track surface..

will also have tranny brake with 2 step hooked up and leaving on popper box...instead of trying to do it by ear and a glance

so i got a lot of varibles in there that cannot be figured on a formula...
if i can get my 60ft,,,down around the 1.30 to 1.33 mark....i will run the numbers..the quicker the 60 ft the quicker the 1/8 mile et...this 1/8 mile stuff happens fast...if you CANNOT 60FT the car in the 1/8 mile your 1/8 mile et will not be where you want it.....its a little more foregiving in the 1/4...ya got a lot more realestate for a motor to pull up the difference from a slower 60 fter....

thanks again Wes...you my Bud !!!!!
