youll get there......i had the mph for my first 3 passes, just needed to learn how to launch the car. it will suprise you, when you think you have it you wont, but when you think it was an eh ok pass, thats when youll hit it.

g/l either way.

still on the ITR tranny and it was almost at 9000 in 4th and that is limiter for me. looked in the mirror he was still at half track so I backed out of it. that was by far the best feeling pass I made in the car ever. letting off I lost 9mph off what I ran consistantly the whole night

4.4 and 24.5's I think the clutch is slippin too it is just a ACT 2600 with unsprung pucked disc.

I might try to get back to the track to get a 10 second pass this year if not I am goin to see what it will do in PWS trim( this was PWS trim cept on slicks). I have a 10pt cage, AC, PS, etc all in the car
