1.76 60' and 8.25 1/8...bolt-ons only
1.76 60' and 8.25 1/8...bolt-ons only
...well sort of. New best 60' and a new best 1/8. 
Due to the new converter, I was SERIOUSLY lacking in the MPH department, but E.Ts. were close to where they should be. The converter is a Midwest 3600, and it's pretty loose. Also, my Eaton decided to take a crap on me, so I'm one-legged.
The best 1/4 run of the night was only a 13.05 @ 103.03 (highest MPH of the night, lowest was a 102.76...was trapping 107, 108 with the stock converter), but I managed a new best peg-legged 60' of 1.76 on one drag radial, and a new best 1/8 time of 8.25. Seems my car has the torque going on, but the back half of the track isn't pulling so well. It's most likely the converter, because I know I'm overstalled at the moment (but it will match perfectly with the cam).
Here's video of the 13.05 run.
I also nailed a perfect reaction time... .500.
All in all...I'm kind of happy, but it looks like I have some serious work to do. Need to get that MPH back up, and actually have TWO wheels with traction.

Dang Joe, somethings up with your car. 79 mph in the 1/8th isn't right. I remember when you were running with that burnt plug wire, and barely in the 13's. You aren't trying that sh*t again only a full second faster are ya!!!
