Kinigpin Machine Front lower solid bushing arms
K-Tuned traction bars w/ rear stabilizer bars
Basic stuff...just really havent found the time to get to an alignment rack and really get it set to where I want it.
Should be able to cut a 1.48 60' the way it sits...there is always another 10th somewhere.

It looks like the bumper was catching a lot of wind or the tires were getting skinning the faster you went.

Nice times Chris! The Ef looks great. I think it was asked earlier but what's the weight and power level at? I'm just comparing it to my turbo car at same mph but you are .8 faster.
I know that all motor is a dif game all together but there's a lot to learn from the way you guys setup your cars. Low 1.5 60ft's in a EF is no joke. Can you give any pointers or things that helped you drop that 60? Thanks!

Most of the ET difference between you and him is in the 60ft.

I'm just curious to know how much power and how heavy is the car because I'm planning to run 10.50 index next year

Reason I ask about gearing, because it wasn't too long ago I watched a video of the car running mid 10's winding out 5th gear. Granted, rev limit change, final drive etc, could have been the change.

Congrats Chris, If anyone deserves it, it's you. Figured you'd ditch that chasis before trying to go that quick.........glad you didn't! Respect as always.
