8.55 @ 81.9 1.89 60' 1/8

Still trying to get boost to build on the line. Motor is boging w/o 2 step on pretty bad.
Will try 2 step and the bottle this weekend and see what happens?

Hey bro thats sounds awesome. I'm hoping for some good numbers on Sat. I'll be going to redline hopefully.

i got some new tires so i should be able to stick a little better.
Oh also i tried some of that torco race additive. i used one quart to 15 gal of gas and well it aparently works. i had my boost at 22 psi and no pinging. Sure pulls good too.

good luck this weekend.

Launched soft off the 2-step. In houston I am going to leave on teh 2-step and bottle. Hoping for a 1.6-1.69 60' If I can manige that then it should go LOW 12's if not bust an 11 :confused:

Any way, i will be giving you a call Brooks when I get back to re-wire the 2-step on the timing spout like we talked about. I think it should help ALOT!

I will post results when I get back either Sun night or Mon am.

likely more of a 1/4 car than a 1/8th. you need to get some lighter rims/tires up front like some welds.

Hey 1fst4,

Which tires are your running? a drag radial or a slick? the tires i bought are pretty sticky i can tell a difference in them already, but they're not a drag tire.
Hopefuly i can make some decent passes and not bust anything. especially my rearend. I'm pretty weary of that 7.5
keep us posted on how houston goes. Don't get to crazy with that Bottle.

If you bust your 7.5 I know a person who has one that would be glad to see it gone.
