New best and finally a good 60ft.
 
I finally got to run the Z last night since the my first outting with it in the beginning of July. Since then, I raised the front end of the car up about an inch, adjusted the wolfe sway bar, and put on some 26x11.5 ET streets.

The first pass it sun for a split second and hooked but I hit the rev limiter in the top of first gear due to the inaccuracy of my factory tach with caused me to lose MPH(I had to take out my Monster tach and shift lite to get it recalibrated).
60ft. 1.658
330ft 4.867
660ft 7.593
mph 91.33
1000ft 9.934
1/4 11.886
mph 116.05

Second run I tightened up the rear suspension a little and launched a little softer which caused the car to bog.

60ft 1.773
330ft 5.046
660ft 7.765
mph 91.01
1000ft 10.081
1/4 12.011
mph 117.31

On all the runs the car seemed to die when I would shift into the next gear. I think I may be getting some knock but my laptop took a crap so I am not able to log it now (solid motor mounts/ banging 4" exhaust might be causing this). Hopefully that is the only thing that is causing it to run 3-4 mph less than expected. The car did run 3 tenths faster with no engine tuning and only changing the suspension. Hopefully once I get it tuned in it will run an 11.3@120-121mph...Now I just got to find the last 3-4 mph out of tuning the engine.

Later
Matt
