Thumbs up

Thanks guys!!! Russ, Dirk, Stephen you guys have got to make a trip down here to run. The track I run at is less than two years old and hooks like a ****!!! Plus we're so close to Sea level that we get some insane DA's from time to time.
Since the Shootout the only Bolt-On I've added are a set of BMR bolt-on LCA relocation brackets. These things are worth their weight in gold!!! They plant the tires so hard into the ground that you can hook when most people ar spinning.
I recently pulled some weight out of the car to see how far I can take it with bolt-ons. I pulled the spare, jack, subwoofer, and back seat. All combined good for 102 lbs.
On these two runs I weighed in at 3525.
Next mod on the list is a cutout. that should be good for .1 and a set of ET streets. the ET Streets should be good for dropping a toal of 40 lbs rotating weight. these runs were still on BFG's.
I'm gonna do my best to see if I can squeeze an 11.99 out in good air. I really think it's possible with awesome air and a dead hook.
Any of you guys from the Shootout feel like making a trip down this winter to lay down some insane #'s just let me know. I'll even hook you up with a place to stay. No Problem Raceway is that great of a track... place snaps axles & driveshafts on a REGULAR basis.
Tech Trance, I'll post all the mods when I get some time. in short damn near ALL the bolt-ons.
As for the LT1 Bolt-On record... I just might have it for now... for 3500+ lbs anyway.
Thanks again guys!!!
Steve...
