I agree, you need your own thread.

You do not want to now what he ran.

The 60 ft times have not improved with the drag radials,
The problem is the torque converter. At the line (1800 rpm my back tires are starting to break free. )
I spoke to IPT yesterday afternoon and he soon will be building me a custom converter with a 3500 rpm stall and a VB, upgarde . To buid the entire tranney with converter is 6250.00 Its will handle about 600 rwhp. It should give be .5 of a second.
It will work well with the stage 2 GTM SC. I just have to save the funds for the tranney.
RCZ The battle for the quickist N/A is long from being over. Jnaut is a great guy and i enjoy my conversations with him . Can think of a better guy to run against for the undisputed N/A quickeist 1/4 mile car.
Oh yes and when i get my GTM Sc running i will be coming down to florida so that you and i can settle the SC wars on the drag strip.
