I am planning on hitting 75-80 on sunday. I broke a fuel feed line friday night cause I am a dumbass but NX is next day airing it to me right now so I should be good to go by the weekend.
But an 11.6?? Damn you are making it tough Tom. 11.8 was bad enough. Hopefully my rear will hold together launching on slicks and a 120-180 shot!!!

Dave,
No worries bro. If I saw you earlier, I would have shown ya how to heel/toe it. The lack of burnout (and water probably still on your tires) was the cause of your spinning 1st-3rd gears. Willie actually let me drive his 7 on his 2nd qualifing run. Willie couldn't muster a good 60' out of the car so I convinced him to let me give it a shot. I did an awesome burn-out. My 60' was pretty nice considering I havn't driven a 7 in a year. I managed a 1.51, but his damn shifter was loose and I missed 2nd, then missed 4th! When I did slam it in 4th it got loose so I just let it coast the rest of the track. I still managed a 11.5 @ 108mph....LOL
Can't wait till mine is done.

Where can I buy a 1.51 & how much does it cost? Damn I gotta work on my launch.
Ernie, which car was that you were driving?

At the moment I plan to at least investigate it carefully over the winter. If I do no2 I may as well do a midpipe and if I do a midpipe I should probably go non-sequential.
My "really street legal" philosophy will be toast. I'm not sure I want to do that. I'm thinking.
I am also reasonably sure i am going back to MIR Saturday & if I don't break anything, 75-80 on Sunday. Have to take advantage of this weather.
