Set my best 60' time!!

Took some time, but, finally got into the 1.5s with a 1.59 sec time at SIR in Tucson. I have been at 1.62 secs or so for last two years!!

Couple of notes: My car has a stock '87 T-5 tranny and a stock torque arm. I have been racing that setup since 1999!!! I launch it at about 4k rpm and have a set of Hoosier QTP tires. Car weighes 3,300 lbs. with me and is street legal still in AZ.

Congradualtions. Going into a new 60 foot zone is as good as a new E.T. sometimes. I just finnaly started hitting some 1.5's for great e.t. results

Thanks FAST 383. I am looking at cams, any suggestions for a NOS roller cam?

Plus, what are your RPM shift points and rev limiter settings?
