    im really happy with them. That 1.34 was actually a new best, I had never been better that 1.35 before. I still have more to throw at it off the line and I’ve got the clutch a touch soft down low. It’s scary to think what’s in there in good air on a really good starting line. Right now it just goes and no spin so I’m hesitant to try much more right now.

    it kills on pro tree, but I couldn’t find the sportsman tree with a seeing eye dog right now. Need to work on that next

    im happy enough for what I was trying to do. Found a few things in data logs to work on, clutch is still too soft, but it’s wonderful to stage and not even think it’s going to knock the tires off.

    That's awesome to think this is a problem with a four banger. My 2.3L Ranger wouldn't "knock the tires off" in a rain storm on a road coated with jelly.

    I keep telling people the solution ... you hit anything with enough RPM and it will spin...

    That’s the weakness in small displacement stuff, it’s not that I want to leave high rpm, it’s more I have to, lol
