    Default Baseline results

    Got some baseline numbers before suspension work, this was at great lakes dragway, they did force me to run ttops off. Very basic setup. I'll be working on trying to shave 1.5 seconds off et from now until shootout.
    PS longtubes, ory with 3" muffler dumped at axle, Cai, 181k miles, 3.90s, full weight, leather power seats, full interior etc, factory sound system with amp, still with spare and Jack, had a 13lb jumper pack in the trunk. Only current mod to suspension is an adjustable PHB. on a 305/35/19. Hankook Ventus v12evo2.

    Kinda wish I went with a stall converter over gears first but either way I need one. Thinking a stall, DRs, light diet, and 100 shot should get me where I wanna be... high 11s?? low 12s??

    Yes, 60 needs help. I have waiting to be installed adjustable Lcas and relocation brackets.

    Added new wheels, Jegs stars (Dont know by how much but definitely weigh much less). I'm on 28" et streets though(in the market for a good dot 26" rn pending my finances).

    Furthermore I've now went to a fiberglass hood and removed the Bose system, spare and Jack as well adding a PL diff cover.

    I also went thru a whole opti situation since then where I had to replace bum rockauto units 2x. I put a known working MSD unit with some otvc wires to prevent arcing and I can feel the car is running much better than when I had it out at the track. I am thinking I may've had a small miss at my last track visit.

    Plan is still to keep the motor and trans as is and begin investing into the suspension. Still plan to spray it and get a GOOD converter, just doing suspension first.

    The track is about a 2hr cruise and I dont have a trailer. Which sucks rn because neither window operates and ac is also inoperable. So Maybe mid to late September I'll have some updated results. Really wanted to make the S/O this year but the opti situation really set me back financially as I kept paying labor cost for that removal and replacement.
