You could make some money around here with 5.70 car like that, one of the higher paying classes here. Awesome run! You have the suspension right it gets up on the tire in a hurry!

BEAST!.. I can't imagine the feeling of running in the 8s or 9s.. I've ran 10s and thought that was crazy fast

thanks guys the motor is being lugged down to much from the converter so it was at a 7400 stall, I sent it back to lenny at ultimate and he is restalling it to an 8300 hopfully that will help on the 1-2 shift recovery and the 60'
