Red face So close

Went to the track last night to try out the new fuel injectors and mass air, the same one svtf150 has.

If only I could have gotten some traction, I either spun off the line or if I got traction , spun in the middle of the track.

I got 3 runs in the 11.0's

ended up with a best of 11.023 at 125mph

I will try this weekend when they prep the track

wish me luck, I only need 3/100th of a second

Good luck, at 125mph you should see a 10 easy if you hook up. I'm may give it a shot this weekend also, I just need to buy some 30" slicks again. My 28's just aren't doing the job like I had hoped.

2 inches.... (J/K)

Depending on the rear gear a shorter tire would give you a lower gear ratio and a taller tire a higher gear ratio.
