Thanks for the kind words

I really think she had a 1.9 or 1.8 60' and a 13.7 @ 99 in her last night, but people kept breaking on the track and by the end of the night only one lane was open so it took a while to get through the staging lanes. The other thing was that I am/was so used to launching EASY that I had a heck of a time re-training myself to just mash the pedal! which brings me to my next point.....HOLY ****! those M&H's flat out work! I was dead hooking the whole day/night, I ran them between 25-20psi and couldn't get my foot to the floor fast enough, lol, freakin 5/10's from a set of wheels/tires, how is that doin? track prep was good, the air was decent, actually stayed hotter than I was hoping for. All in all we all drove home and all ran new persomnal bests including the GTO bubbas!

We should have had a professional camera person. I recorded it on a DVD Cam with a DVD-R disc and they can not be copied according to Hitachi. I have been on the computer and phone all morning with Hitachi. I am still trying to find a way around it.

Moregrip-I was afraid a tire that big would have hurt you more than helped. I'm glad it helped.
Now quit screwing around and get the heads and cam installed
