Sweet. My ST best time was 12.9 @ 113 with a 2,2 60', if I could have gotten it down I would have been 12.7ish. That's my goal for this year.

Rev limiter is set at 6700, I will not rev to 7000 any more untill I get either a whole built head or new stronger valve springs. I have broke two roller follows on the same valve. Replaced the spring once and its broke again. I am know running with the broke roller till either I get the head or I have to get a head do to a fucked head lol. Not intended to be mean it just pisses me off.

40% torque first gear. On these runs I shift out of 1 at like 61-62ish. On the slicks it is such a hard hit, and the pull is so hard I end up shifting at like 65-6600 because it comes so fast.

Oh it will go lol. I was going to tell you to turn down the torque in first but couldnt find you. You getting a good launch and you can tell at about 4000-4500 you start blowing the tires off, even on your good runs. Did you happen to weigh your car? Mine was 2980 with me in it. And I had the seats in it and all. I was suprized.

first run i had torque set at 45 through most of the range ending at 64 percent. it felt weak. turned it up to 51 and ending at 67 percent. most runs were good. launching at 2700-3000 car was mostly sticking. last run launched at 4000. held for a second, then just let loose. had second set at 100 percent through the whole range. seems to buck and bog on the 1-2 shift. set back to 60 and progressed up to 100. didn;t seem to make much difference. lol. was getting discouraged. best run was 13.17 @ 108. forgot to weigh the car. i had the upper back seats out, and the trunk empty.

Lets go out wed. and get it done. Do you have anything to do? I also noticed you NLS 2nd the one time I was up there watching you. That hurt more than helped do to the bog afterwords. What are you reving out to?

So those deflated footballs don't get ruined just sitting inside your springs all that time? Seems like they'd get ruined pretty quick. Is the ride just too stiff leaving them inflated all the time or what?

This was with the chain in front also? I am assuming yes, so I am asking how much of a difference in 60' from stock to lowered with the chain?
