well after a string of bad luck, from breaking the rear first time at the track and running a dissapointing 13.2, then fixing the rear only to find out when i started it up it was knocking, broken crankshaft, im finally where i should be. best pass was a 12.71, best mph was 106. all throttle no bottle. man it took a while but im finally happy, now to start tuning and hopefully not break anything else.

Sweet running man! I would say with that 406 and your light weight 12s is pretty good! I am sure that 406 is putting down some NICEEEEEE HP.
have fun with it. lata CHRIS
