Now that you have that little stumbling block out of the way it's time to shoot for 11's. Nice work.

Congrats man, when the weather cools down a bit here and when the track opens at 8pm instead of 1030pm, I'm gonna run a few times before I come to work, I'm trying to get into the 8's in the 1/8 mile, LOL.

Awesome Job, now you can start to work for 11's. Like Sleeper said, real DR's will get you into the mid 12's. Good going Tommy!

The DA was 623 near the end of the night, very good for this track considering it has an actual elevation of about 400 feet. Although last year I ran my g/f's car at about sea level so hopefully I can run my car in conditions like that laterthis year. I wonder what that 600 foot drop would do for my ET.
Qatar I'm probably not going to swap the cam, at least not until I swap the gears and converter. No telling when that would be.
Steele, I have a dry nitrous kit in my closet, not sure what direction I'm going in with the car though. I may spray a 100-125 shot next season.
Thanks for the congrats guys.
