I know, I'm still slow, and still stock but I sure do enjoy watching her make progress. Last night at Delmar, I pulled a new personal best. IF I would have had a converter, I'm sure it would have been in the 13's. Anyway, here it is:

LOL!! Thanks Trae!! I'd like to think I'll hit 13's prior to Nats but one never knows! I'll have some vids up hopefully sometime this evening. I'm really digging my rear window decal! http://mysmileyz.com/s/thumbsup.gif

^^^This car above is a perfect example of a good direction to head^^^

That's just bad ass, and it's 100% streetable because the motor is basically stock...

with your mph you will probably drop .5 off et with a good custom converter.

foxxy,id go with a converter becuase the stock converters suck for racing.on another website a guy said trying to launch on his 'verter he actually ran slower than launch it at idle,of course the guy was on street tires to.

Thanks. A converter is in the future, just no funds for it right now. And yeah, I have realized that launching from almost idle, works alot better for me. Thanks again.

i leave at 1500-1600 and flash my converter for best results. its a tight 3000 stall from edge.
