That 1.42 is VERY impressive. I was hooking up like a Mofo all day, and my best was a 1.53. I'm glad you will be able to get going without a HUGE expense, and it was nice to meet you. I'll be seeing ya at Bradenton...

I would agree you and your husband are a class act. It was nice to meet you and you know we are in the fight against boost being just N/A cars. I need to get mine to launch like your car does. I think something was said about my front struts but not sure....

nice runs hardcore! incredible to get a .000 RT. my best so far is a .002. man was i shocked to see that. my first run of the day was also my best but it was only a .104. i was busy focusing on getting the launch right, which is why i sat at the light for a sec on a bunch of runs while making sure to be at the right rpm! lol

That's how things go when you turn your own wrenches. The only schedule you need to work around is your own.

Hope everything works out and you get your cam today or tomorrow. You can button that thing up and be in G-ville next wednesday.

If all goes well, Jenn and I may be there too with a brand spanking new 408 to break-in lead foot style ! ! ! Woot ! ! ! !
