Thumbs up CC306/383/LE Intake CPT Shake Down 1/8 mi.

What a great night. Went to the West Barbour Drag strip out near Louisville, AL. When I drove up into the track it was empty and no one there at 3pm today. After a bit the owner of the track walked up and asked me if I was there to run. I said of course and that I haven't run her in 3 yrs. About that time someone else pulled up with an S10 on a trailor. The owner was great. He didn't charge us a thing and I got 4 runs in. The last run he put down some track prep so I could hook. I was trapping 91mph in the 1/8th all night. The last run I actually hooked with the following times:

60" - 1.631
1/8th - 7.603
MPH - 91.13

With the new additions I have managed to gain 4mph. I didn't get to tune any due to my software not sincing up but I'm sure I can get another mph or two out of it and about .05 to .1 in the 60' on a good day. The track was super cold due to only two of us even there with the track owner/his wife and son. O yeah I had Joanna there taking video. I'll upload a video for you guys to see in a bit.

Overall it felt realy great to get out to the track without anything breaking and driving home 30 minutes one way. Overall I'm stoked on the shakedown passes and can't wait to get this thing diled in some more. It's still got another 2 to 3 tenths in the whole combo I'm sure. All N/A by the way. Haven't put her on the juice yet.

Clarification on set up:

CC306/383/ 11.1:1 CR/ 93 pump gas
Ported Heads similar to LE2 but ported by local shop
LE Ported Intake/ 58mm TB
Skinnies
M/T DR
Moser 12 Bolt 3.73 gears
Forged bottom end waiting for the 200 shot do I hear a 300.
CPT PRO RACE tranny and WOW does this tranny slam the gears(spun all 4 passes on the 1 to 2 shift when I got out of the track prep).
