Hey guys,

I thought I'd post the latest news. my truck has been at JDM for a while trying to figure out why it keeps shutting down on me at half track when using the nitrous. It's still being worked on, but Jim just called me with some good news. we've made some progress in the right direction!.

they took the truck to the track to make some passes and do some datalogging and work on the shutdown issue.

first two passes were in the 6.80 range in the 1/8 mile but then backfired and shut down after half track.

both of those runs gave 1.54 60foot times on the new Mickey Thompson Drag Radials!

third pass with some major changes:

10.94 @ 126 with a 1.64 60ft time.

I know that "technically" it may not be OFFICIAL until it happens with me behind the wheel. but thanks to JDM and alot of people here, it looks like I've finally got the 10 second truck I've been hoping for!!!

thanks guys.

later,
chris

Thats great Chris. Did you get the other issues figured out yet? Like the knock. I need your wheel back spacing for the rear before spring.
