Very nice man

Nice!

thanks guys! i know its not my best but im happy! i baby the f out of my car. slow shifting and easy launches. i wanting to get the full tilt boogie kit for the IRS but got other things im wanting first. i dont really drag race the car anyways just every now and then.

What all do you have done and what tires do you run?

just the normal bolt on 03 cobra with a 2.93 pulley. wanting to move to a 2.76 pulley but sounds like a waste of money to me. id rather just go bigger blower.

right now im running the new Toyo TQ drag radial but not really feelin them.

Eric, ET is the goods, trap speed is a little off imo. what power was this at?

at my 432 rw tune, with just exhaust and a 2.8, on street tires, I ran a 7.80 @ 94. This was with a 1.95 60 foot... on Nitto DRs with a 2.0 60 foot at 470 rw tune I ran a 7.90 @ 99... dunno why only 89 mph... keep on keepin on, great launch! Those Toyos rule. What helps with hop is good stiff springs...

Which cobra were you? the white one that showed up late? good looking terminator if so! but why did you race that truck instead of waiting one more car and lining up with me??

yea i dont really launch it hard. im not trying to break anything. i know it will do better. the car made 470. i lowered the tires to about 30 and it seemed to work pretty good. a little bit more and it probly would of been perfect! once i get the full tilt boogie kit in ill start trying harder. i needa adjust something with my shifter cause it has the MGW and it feels like its hard to go into gear :(

I ran a 8.30 last night at 89. 2.1 60ft. Awful. No traction, shifting into second the car would just axle tramp. I'd have to get out of it then floor it again. I'm not disappointed in the car though.

Yeah that was me. I think they were just trying to push cars thru, which I understand....it was pretty clear there were a few guys there that have never been to the track before and they were holding things up a bit...

get the full tilt and a whipple or KB and you will probably whip my a$$, but I'm always game for a run..
