sounds good.
I would LOVE to knock 1 solid tenth off the 60 ft.
My best so far is a 7.130 with a 1.60 60 ft and maybe with the Tq Arm, I can see some 1.50 60 fts and 7.000-69xx in the 1/8 mile.

My car is a touch under 3500 with me in it though, so I can't complain too much. Have you had the chance to ry the Torque arm yet?

There are ways to pull a little weight out of the car and still keep the basics, a/c cd player etc. But no way in hell am I giving up my Chips Ahoy. Iv'e been eating those since they came out. What's that time wise, like 40 years now?

haven't even installed it yet.
Had enw carpet installed so everything came out of the house and we painted some rooms before everything went back in. just about got everything abck in and then I jacked up my ankle playing raquet ball.
Hopefully have it installed in the next week or so and get some track times before the Texas heat gets here.

yea,
my days of tackle football and hockey are now over. Once you reach 35, you just do not heal like you used to. I am 37 now and and just play racket ball and lift weights. No more contact sports for my knees and ankles.

yep, i m an old one, lol.
Raquetball, Tennis, etc, lol. All the sports that I considered "gay" when I was younger playing sports like Football, Hockey, etc and had no regard for my body.
Cold mornings and rainy seasons a a "*****" on old injuries like knees, ankles, fingers, etc, that took a beating early on. You do not realize it until it hits you and then BAM. All of those injuries will come back to memory.
Ultra Blue Emu Oil and Celebrex is your freind in cold and rainy weather.
back on topic, I am about to go install the Tq Arm and try it out.
I raised my shift points from 6100 to 6500 RPM and GOOD GOD what a difference. I am pretty excited about hitting the track before it gets hot.
I feel like a 6.9xx is totaly realistic if this Tq Arm knocks ANYTHING off my 60 ft time. Hell, the shift point extention alone would put me close to that as long as it is 60 degrees or cooler when I hit the track (best pass so far is 7.13 with in 80-85 degree weather).
