Congrats to JD730

He made some nice runs today out at Island. I think I saw one at 14.00, which was faster than some Vettes. Nice work Mike. Let us know how you did, I ducked out early.

Yeah, that was my last run, 14 flat. Was hoping to break into the high 13's on fuel only, I don't know if it was the hot nasty air or I need to advance the timing some more. Maybe a little water/meth will make her go a little faster.

congratulations! Hot weather at the strip is a pain. Mine ran on the west coast this weekend and it was on the chilly side. 14.00 is about as close to 13.999 as you can get.

Yup, bare box, even took the tailgate off.

On a side note, I finally got the dana 80 in a few weeks ago.

Mines a cheater. But at least it looks like a first gen. I wouldn't trade it for a brand new one.
