10's or bust on friday, think i can do it?
 
screw it, i am going to go for it :D , 10's or break/blow something up.

the 7.41 run translates to about a 11.6, there are several things i plan on doing.

100shot out of the hole instead of the 75
spray just a hair longer, maybe to 4500 instead of 4300
shift a little later, ~6200 now, probably up it to 6500
drop 100+lbs(gate and seat)
pull cat back apart, the cut out plate is only 2.5" and not leting all the exhaust out easy
some 114 leaded gas and crank the knob/tune till i see a 10.99 or i get knock.

sooo, what am i forgeting? will i see a 10? blow up? or see knock(not going to blow it up by being dumb)?

wow, goodluck!

i dunno if you have a hitch or not, but those weigh a good amount. i think you got everything covered.

I think you can! But I think a better bet would be....Parish of Slowverado, who will be in the 10's first!

Go for it!!! Wish you the best of luck and hope nothing breaks on you. That would suck after just finishing up your truck. If it holds, you should try to make it over this way to North vs South shootout. It's about a 6.5 hr drive with some moderate speeding. I heard there's going to be another turbo truck going for the number one spot. Give 'em hell :cheers:

LOL .... I think you should be able to do it. Just be careful and if you do blow something up, be sure to get it on tape! :)

Go for it and download it in mpeg next time, so I can see it! Good Luck!

Just think, it only has to last for 10.xx seconds! Keep it away from the ping and it can hold up. :nod:

Pill it to you kill it!!! Remember, pull over in the grass win you blow something up, you don't want to slick the track. :D
I want to see the video. I think you can do it.
