Not to bad for the first time out with the new car, def have some suspension things to work on/tire so i can launch the car a little harder. Was not weight transfering very well for me :/ but got a good base to work from

Is that why you still have a pic of the old motor in the sig?

7.1 is a lot better than what I have seen Cobra's run the 1/8th around here......When you get it right, what are you expecting out of it?
