Test and Tune Grove Creek Dragway. Best time was 7.88 (1/8 mile) at 89.29mph. 1.76 60ft. First pass 8.31 86.11mph. Upped the timing 2 deg and sec jets 4 sizes. Backseats and panels are out (waiting on plastic piece to fix windows) figured little less weight couldn't hurt.

Thank you for the ride :cheers: I have the itch now =D>
So I will do all I can to drive to George Rays 1/8 mile track tomorrow, I am not setting at home...:compress:
 
Nice run with good MPH. Might have another .2 in it with the 89ish MPH. Keep after the 60'
 
On the ride home I thought to adjust the Rancho 9 ways (figures). They were both set at 5 for the street. Not sure how much it would have affected the 60's but couldn't have hurt anything that's for sure. Everybody I talk to about 1/8th mile said it wasn't as much fun. It's an hour and fifteen to the 1/8th mile and 3 hours to the 1/4 mile track. I had just as much fun if not more at the 1/8th mile track. The best it ran last year was 12.91 in the 1/4 so I'm super pumped about the times it ran today.
(1/8-1/4 calculator said 12.20-12.30).
 
Good stuff. Keep at it, there's definitely more in it with that mph.
