Default New PB ~10.6

I got my car back in December and it had a vibration issue. Ended up being a driveline. But in the meantime I needed a new UCS to adjust the pinion angle and between work, family and other life activities, it was tough to get done.

The car makes ~600 through a 4r70w. I think it's got a 10.2 in it as it sits.
On this night I was running 6.8 in the 1/8th which if you do the math it works out to a 10.6x. Which my car usually does follow the 1.55 equation. But I was bracket racing and I didn't want to break out. I was on the brakes at the end most runs just so I could stay in the winner lanes.

I still have a few things that I need to do to the car. First off it needs a better transmission cooler. The current one is not adequate.

I also need to put an ARB in it. When you watch video you can see the whole left side of the car comes up and the car goes left. An ARB will fix that.

I'm probably going to get an electric water pump. It'll free up some HP.

First run. Yires came off the ground and my foot came back off of the pedal lol.


Pulled the wheels good on this one.


This was my last pass. I won each round and went back around the lanes waiting for them to call my lane. They didn't...They expected me to come back around and hot lap. So I don't know.
