The track was in horrible condition tonight so my 60's were off. My new best was a 7.90 @86.73 with a freak 1.756 60. Most 60's were in the 1.8's. I raised my shift point a litte which also gave me a new best MPH 87.05 but time was only an 8.04 on that pass because of a horrible 60ft.

I can't wait for cooler weather in the fall to see what she may do. All these times were done in 90 degree heat and high humidity.

I need to make some changes. My new power and RPM are causing me to lose belts right and left. I need to fix that before heading out again.
I would like to fix it and go out next week but I need to get my other car ready for Goodguys. I need to put this one on the back burner for a few weeks.

If you go let me know. I may try to go watch.
