It was fun.
it was a slow night for everyone, I will let Kurt post his times. His tbss hooks awesome, very nice ride. I still had traction issues witht he slicks but got some decent runs in, i have to get my mcleod master cylinder in for the clutch, the tranny didnt even want to shift over 4k. which i expected. All in all i had a great time, It was awesome to meet Kurt and SC, very cool guys. i have alot of bugs to work out.
I ran a 12.8 @ 113.9
.664 reaction
.239 60ft.....lol
5.69 330
8.52 1/8th@86.3
brooke missed the 12 sec run with the camera,
I blew the waste gate out of the cross pipe the second run, lol.... luckily found a little welder and got it fixed good enought to hold. i ran a 15.1 @ 112 on the street tires.....lol... i should have some 11s friday if i get my stuff done on the tranny. here are some vids.

damn mic that thing sounds good..
kurt.. does that thing break your neck lol? what are you launching at?
damn mic that thing is sic man! are you numbing it out of the hole to keep traction? or does it just take a minute? im headed to the 1/8th mile tomorrow night to try and work out my launches a bit better. going to try letting the clutch out a bit slower and hoping im under the 2.0 60ft. id love to see a 1.8 and an 8.XX run. last time was 2.21 60ft. 9.27 1/8th at 79.XX mph.
It was nice to see everyone out last night and got to meet a few that I haven't meet yet. OMG! I'm speechless...I would not want to race Mic from a roll in his truck...that would be embarrassing...His truck is sick! I ran 12.3's all night long (5 passes). Got some adjusting to do with the suspension, break in the motor, chase down some more gremlins and etc. etc. Nothing broke from these shakedown runs so, it was a good night. Should have lowered an upper bar before I left the shop but oh well. I'll take a spinning 1.7 60ft w/20" DR's anytime.
1.7- 60
5.1- 330
7.8- 1/8 @87.98
12.33- 1/4 @111.11
yeah Kurt and Mic's rides were sick. Mic's truck sounds like a damn jet. Kurts ride looks sick and is freakin quick that thing is slammed had fun meeting yall and SC hope to do it again when my **** is faster.
Thanks for the compliments guys, I was launching off rpm, 3500 wasnt enough and would fall out and 5k was too much...lol.. i cant feather the clutch, its on or off. I still have to get it all down a little better, the shifting is the main issue right now. It is a blast to drive. i did get one 2.0 60ft, but that is when the waste gate blew out of the pipe. so didnt matter. friday should be a little better,
here is another vid of Kurt.

damn kurt did you get tore up by that HD?
That was me spinning...really bad! Someone had just finished dumping fluid down on the track. I stalled to 1k and just flashed the convertor, needless to say I didn't try that again. I can only stall to about 2800 and my brakes won't hold it on the line. And no, I still got him.Quote:

It was great fun.
Mic's truck is insane, I recommend a ride if you can get one!!
Kurt is well on the way to 10's, just need to get the setup ironed out first. It will snap your neck from a dig.
Great to see/meet everyone, and I will be back in action before long!!!
What broke on the wastegate?
Sounds like great fun guys. Maybe next time for me.
The pipe broke where it was welded in. the metal around the weld gave up. Im redoing it now. will not happen again....... im pretty sure its because i took the flex collar out and just put the flange on it. the wg is a little too heavy, and needs some support. slowly working the bugs out....lolQuote:

Hey Mic, your truck ran really good, you could tell it still had a lot to go but it I guess your trans issue cost you a good amount of time , your truck and the TBss of your buddy were running super hard, there was an SRT-8 cherokee getting down the track sick fast, didn't see his upgrades, but I think it went 11's, my Gmc didn't do to good, I ran 14.7 at 93 spinning out of the gate, had to let off, slow a#@ 60 ft. 2.36 maybe next time I can run a little faster, I'd like to invest in some FI to be able to run as good as some of yall...
