Ran a 9.960 @ 135.21 mph with a 1.503 60' today at MIR.

My intercooler piping kept coming loose and I didn't really have the right tools to use. It actually came loose even on my 9 pass. Overall it wasn't a pretty pass. Right off the launch I was fighting to keep it straight, but never lifted. I think it has a 9.8 in it as is. Still 100% stock suspension too.

I'll have a vid up soon.

Nice pass!! Now get some real suspension under the car and get the 60 foot times down where they belong on a 9 sec car. A good 60 foot will probably put you in the 9.50s

The plans for this year:
K member
A arms
Coil overs
control arms
MAYBE an anti roll bar
new converter
trans brake

9.50's are actually my goal for the year.

That shouldn't be a problem! With the proper weight reduction and weight transfer, you'll be going wheels up with the power to push 1.3x 60fts. every pass!

I'm assuming full drag suspension, right? 50/50's in the rear, 90/10's up front, etc...

Every piece I buy will definitely be for drag, yes. So far I only have plans of getting coil overs on the front. No plans of doing the rear shocks. Control arms will get done though.
