    Both Cars look great!

    Have you run the blue LX in the 1/4 yet? If so, what does it run?

    Unfortunately... 11.39 @ 132 w/ 60s in the mid 1.8s
    The car has a ton more in it, but the Tremec TKO600 will not shift into third at the track. It is at Pro Motion Powertrain in FLA hopefully getting fixed under warranty.
    Made 598/580 on 7.1 psi and a conservative tune.
    Once the trans issue is fixed i'll be getting a cheap boost controller and going back for a tune hopefully at 15psi on E85
    It was just nice to get the car to the track.

    Car looks awesome!
    What size rear wheels are those?
    What size are the MT drag radials?
    How does the car hook so far?

    Thanks.
    15x10s and 325/50 Mickey's like a 28x13 slick I've been told, wanted the 15x12s but my builder said stretching the DRs wouldn't work well like a bias-ply.
    I obviously need more testing, but the car has been difficult to balance bog vs. spin the 10 passes I've made.
    Best 60 was 1.78 and that was when I wasn't trying to launch, just make a clean pass and hit the gear, and I left like i would on the street and it hopped slightly probably 10-12 times but went forward.
    Plan is to get the trans back and I'll take the last week of Aug. off. If the trans will shift at the T&T that week I'll take it to NMRA Columbus---my chassis guy will be at both so hopefully we can get it ironed out.
    Later, J

    Sweet! I'm highly considering a set of MT drag radials 325-50-15 but i'm not sure if they will fit. I have a set of 28 x 12.5 MT et streets now and they are a pretty tight fit.

    What t&t are you going to? PRP?

    Dave seems to be a great guy to work with and his works looks unbelievable!
