Thumbs up Thanks To All Responsible For My New Personal Best ET

Thanks to JL for that serious 4# lower pulley (you owe me a new pair of rear tires, LOL), JJ for the JDM water pump, Mark/LightningForce for the Belltech shackles and last but not least Jim@JDM for the warm weather program. I like to call it the Marine Corp of programs. It seems to adapt and overcome any mods I throw at it. I keep putting 93 octane in and it never whimpers. Thanks Guys.

P.S. I almost forgot that ET was 12.651@107.93 MPH.

Full weight, F1's and 93 octane.

LTNBOLT:

Let me 'hitchike' here with you--btw, great et.

I got my first '12' last Fri(12.882) and backed that up with four 12 sec. passes last nite: 12.962, 12.942, 12.896, and my new 'best' of 12.873@106.91.

I expected colder temps, but it was 63* on that best pass while it was 58* degrees a week ago--go figure?

My oldest(there are 3) sister and her husband drove two hours to see their first 1/4 mile strip/race. I got the track official to let me take her on a 14 sec. pass. I took off with a normal(hard) launch but backed(half-throttle-70mph) out of it at the 1/8 marker and ran a 15.xxx(she has the t/slip!)--still beat a ricer/honda. My sister told "you didn't have to go that slow--I want a '12'!" She is a 'sport-model'(Southern sayin')

Thanks to EVERYBODY that made those 12s possible!

Dan

Almost forgot, they had a wedding at the 'tree' out on the track! Nearly teared up.....
