First runs with Scorpion 1.7rr's
The track was complete **** last night, but I still got a new best. Right now my only mods are a cutout and 1.7rr's. My best time was.
60' 2.24
1/8 9.0
mph 81.5
1/4 13.85
mph 103.6
DA was about 2700
I think when I get the rev limiter bumped up, some slicks and better weather that it may be possible to go 106mph and run low 13's. Headers will be put on soon after that!

Don't be surprised if the slicks improve your ET but slightly hurt your MPH.
Good runs though, from your 60 foot you have alot of ET to gain with a good launch.

So your only mods are a cutout and 1.7rr's and your hitting 103mph? Wow. Good times.
Sometimes I don't get it. I trap at 102 with my mods.
Good times non the less. Add headers and let her breath.

No way in hell are slicks going to break my rearend.
Famous last words.
10 bolts can break at any power level, any clutch, any tire, anytime and most of the time especially with 6speeds.

If it's the times in your sig, then you gained about 4 mph and 0.4 with a cutout and 1.7 RR's? Is that right? Nice gains.
BTW, my 1/8 trap and ET are identical to yours, but I ended up at 13.8@102, so your top end is strong right now. The 1.7 RR's are the key there, more breathing in the upper RPM's. My weather also REALLY sucked that day. Looking forward to times of mid 13's @ 104 with better weather.
Also, How noisy are those scorpion 1.7 RRs?

Re: First runs with Scorpion 1.7rr's
Im sort of dissapointed w/ the results. But your times show either a bad ability to launch at the track, slow shifting, or something wrong w/ your car to start. 14.2 at 99 is slow. Especially in arizona. BUT. 1/2 a second is good if you have changed nothing else. thats a pretty good gain.
