Thanks again guys, I was so happy after that. When I pulled up to the time slip booth, the guy looks at me smiling and says "uhhhhhh.....you need to go see Tech". I was excited then, but I figured I got an 11.45 or something just under the 11.50 limit. Then he told me the time, and I was sitting there thinking "HOLY ****" to myself. Then the smile started, lol.

Works pretty well, I still want to find a different actuator for it. The spring in the actuator is too tight. The opposing spring has to be tightened so much that it hangs open just a little bit at idle and sounds like a small exhaust leak, and it only opens about half way with 15-20 pounds of pressure. I started to think about doing an electric actuator run off of a Hobbs switch or something. It works well enough for now that I'm not worried about it, but eventually I'd like to work on it some more. I'll get some pics, sorry I forgot them from before.

If you can't make a truck with 24 more ci, and 1200 less pounds faster then me, then you should go find some big cliff in the AZ desert to drive that POS off of...

Congrats on the new best. It brought a tear to my eye cause it looked just like mine when It used to run. I think 10's are very possible for you.

Working on uploading a video...my internet is down at home so I'm logged on through my phone, might take awhile.
Nice run! Im glad you are getting it dialed in, 10's are just around the corner. I think you can do it with the 15psi by just playing with the tune, and launch.
