Nice man, what's the setup on the car? Looks fast for only a 75 shot.

stock 4 valve motor, 4.88 gear, qa1 adjustable shocks , control arms, drag bag, drag springs, sway bar delete, 150lbs worth of weight reduction, leaving at 5500-6000. just a budget bracket car... on the audio im guessing it got too loud for the camra lol.
first video was a 7.27 pass, second was a 7.42

man thats moving good job!..so does it have any bolt ons at all? if so what? a 7.27 is like a lower 11s run..like an 11.3 or so. Just seems crazy for a 350rwhp car (assuming the typical 4v makes 260-280 or so rwhp stock).

Normally I start with a 75-100 shot just to check the tune and work up from there. You may not know it yet but you will be on a 150 shot in no time. You'll step the gear down and start running colder plugs. It happens to the best of us LOL.

I wanna see the car pull a low 1.4 with a good video :)

yeah iv got a 2012 that ive been playing with lately its got a 50 shot on it as well, my best pass in it so far is a 6.96 @ 98 but a slower 60ft (im guessing that is weight related).... im going with colder plugs and bigger pills on it first

Damn dude...a 6.9-7.0 car is a high 10 second 1/4 car. What's all done to the 5.0 to be running 10s with just a 50 shot? I'm assuming tune, tires, exhaust, and suspension with the 50 shot? Auto or stick?
