Okay, fella's it's time for a new clutch to get back picking up 27+ mph in the 2nd half of the track instead of the 22-23 I was picking up at M7. If this works that should get me up to the 115 range.

It will also help when launching on the spray.

Hey Chad, Did you tell me you had 4.10's and a 12 bolt under your car? I'd also like to be there when you make that first N2O pass
Love to see the look on your face, as I'm sure it will look like this....
You might also need to look into a cage

Yes sir, 4.10's with a Moser 12 bolt already under the car. I am hoping to be in the 11's N/A this next year and possibly 10's on spray.

Let me know how that install goes. My brother just picked up the same setup for his Firebird. We are going to put it in very soon, along with the long tubes I convinced him to buy Getting the Centerforce out. So give me all the tips you can think of.

I probably won't have the clutch for a week or two and am not sure if I am going to tackle the install myself or take it somewhere and have it installed. I don't have the space in my garage that we rent, but either way it will probably go in in the spring. I am planning on taking the car up to Dad's in the spring for the fuel pump install and may do the clutch at the same time.

Cory, I plan to be at 131 the first day that they open in the spring. Hopefully they will have Wednesday TNT next year.

My ET dropped a solid .9 on a 75 shot. You'll love it. Looked in the IHRA rulebook. 11.49 and quicker requires a 6pt rollbar.

Yep, Skip that is one good thing about 131 I can run down to a 11.50 with out needing the roll bar.
