The 1/4 was 11.4 @ 119 but I blew a coupler at the intercooler 100" before the finish and lost all boost. Best MPH was of the day was 121 with a 2.00 60' the 11.4 was a 1.70 60' I think Dusty has some vids of it. I think with a full run with out coupler problems I can run 11.2's up here.

On the spray you shouldn't have any problem running in the high 8's assuming everything else is correct.

That's kinda what I was thinking, but hey I'm just learning, you guys are the experts.

I realize it's not gonna be all that fast, but any truck running in the 8s earns some respect in my book.
