New best

With the DA hovering between 3500 and 4000 the car was able to go 7.25 @95 mph witha a 1.50 60' time. Ended up having issues with the tow rig and had to cut the evening short. Still need to play with the timing a bit, and I still need to twist this engine up some more, I had a 6800 chip on the high side. This thing is pulling hard when i t hits the limiter, so I am planning to throw an 8K high side chip in the box and start raising shift RPM's by 200 a pass and see what if I can get this thing into the 6's....

Re: New best

Last year it was pulling the front end pretty good, but on the two passes I made 1.52 and 1.50 it felt less violent.

Last year I was footbraking to about 3K, this year I am trying to hold about 2200-2500 and letting the engine have a run at it.

Terrible blurry pic.
