Default 11.63 at 117mph

I decided to go to Memphis last night for some 1/4 mile action since the weather was decent. I wanted to bust off some really good numbers but since my fuel pump cant keep up I couldn't hold the nitrous button down continuosly. I had to let off the juice when the fuel pressure would drop then when it would rise I would hit it again (doing this several times during a pass) The best pass was a 11.63 at 117 and it ran a couple 11.64's at 116 so I am still convinced it will run pretty good once I get the fuel system straightened out.

Awesome times man! When you get a higher volume fuel pump and you can laugh all the way down the track you should be around 11.4 or lower. Awesome man, keep us posted!

You should lower it about 3-4 inches and put some light weight rims of her. Like Weld That'd drop a tid bit of time

Thanks guys, I am proud of those times, but like everybody else, I always want and expect more.

Snake-That's my plan to run a separate cell for the juice, then I an going to shoot 200 or so to it. My wideband wasn't working last night but I fixed it today so I went out and attempted a couple passes just to see what is going on but my fuel pressure drops to 40 even without the spray. It is definitely time to address the fuel pump.

Sportside-No, my 60fts are in the 1.70's this year (1.80's without juice) It was 1.60's last year and I know if I can get that back the ET will come down.
Suspension is stock, but I'm starting to think the front shocks are giving up. Thinking about seeing if I can get some new ones before it goes out of warranty. I would like to have some drag shocks, but the stockers were on there last year for all those 1.63-1.65 60fts so I know they work.

2000-It was nice talking to you, and I don't think I told you but I thought your truck is sweet. Those wheels look awesome with that color and you got the perfect stance.
