Default Finally broke into the 13's

I went out to the track tonight to test out my posi. I got 4 runs in for the night and am quite pleased considering the tracks surface condition. My best time was a 13.91 @ 99.4 mph. My 60' times have room to get a little better, but that can be solved with better rubber. Only weight reduction I took out of the truck was my 2 10" subs. I will elaborate more with pics of my time slips tomorrow, but right now I gotta get some sleep. Lata

What motor do you have? Vicred has a cammed 5.7ls1. So not only did he add more hp, he reduced weight by getting an aluminum block.
