    I'm headed to TnT next Thursday then the SCS Rental.

    Try for a 10.0 on street tires. Then time to tear it down.

    Dave will hopefully be getting my Shortblock by Dec 1 to build.

    Kept making adjustment but couldn't get the car to leave consistent. Also, the wastegates kept popping open creating a weird boost issue. Back to the drawing board and back again soon. When the car did hook and move, it's never felt stronger. I think we can easily crack the 8's @160+.

    Theres not a cage in it yet. I plan on putting a bar in it over the winter.

    Honestly, I don't know when it's enough. To chase the real record (fastest/quickest) means a commitment I'm not sure I'm willing yet to make. I kind of like it being a 8 sec capable pump gas car. We'll see after I turn the boost up and make some bigger power. That will be test.

    Back on the dyno today. 913whp/685 ft lbs.... straight 93 ocatane. Has some room left too.
    Fixed the wastegate issue and graph is the smoothest it's ever been. Holding rock steady boost and still climbing at 8000 RPM. Also had to replace the ETS as the car was acting RWD the last time to the strip. Going to incorporate the syvecs RWD controller to see if I can get more heat into the slicks this time.
    Hold off winter!!

    Come on, Ranger Dan! lol

    The only thing that's going to be broken the next time I'm out is my old record... and the 8 sec barrier.
