Trying to post vids to Youtube but somethings wrong. Ran 12.7 @ 106 all afternoon. However my 60' improved. All runs were in the 1.7 range with the lowest being 1.73

I had her down to 5300lbs. If she was a single cab weighing 5000lbs it would be 12.3 or 12.4 truck probably hitting 108-109mph.

Well loose the bed, fenders, hood, glass, spare tire, carpet, door panels, all seats (install plastic patio chair), dash and go on a diet until you are a healthy 79 pounds. **** will be fast as ***** then

Didn't seem like you warmed the tires much but they seem to churp and go! Sounds real good!

Don't have to burn em to much. They grip good, in fact on one run she spun the wheel inside the tire.

Sounded like it shifted out of second pretty quick. What rpm is it shifting out at in second?

I watched it again and turned the volume up this time. I think what I thought was a short shift for 2-3 was the converter locking up in 3rd.

Yeah the TC lock up is an area of concern. I have to data log the truck and I will be using my G-tech for the accelerometer and send the info to Mike. Some changes are needed. Truck is falling on it's face during lockup. I liked it better when it locked up at 89mph in third but even then it took to long. On a good note the truck has plenty more left in it. EGT's at the traps were 1480F so more timing can be added. Also Mike wasn't pleased with the shifts. They need to be faster and firmer. Hopefully some good things to come this sping.

Hows the GT500? Have you run it?
