so lets do some math shall we....

stock 5.3 (cam only), 3600 Yank, FLT 65E, MP T-70, G80, and less than 1000ft of throttle, went 12.51@111.....

cmpared to, built 347ci, good heads, 3500 CircleD, 4L80E, Precision 78GTH, tru-trac (and more suspension)... any guesses??

the biggest thing killing me will be the heat.

have you put a catch pan or something under it??? if you have any condensation or anything dripping they'll kick you off the track for sure....

unless you got dry ice and I know a local place that has it....

It didnt drip anything last time we went to the track. i bring a long hose so i can drain some water out and not get on the tires or anywhere on the truck. then fill it with ice and let it circulate for a few mintues.
Ill put some rags under it just to be on the safe side.

either way, or like I said, dry ice works good, a few of the big race setup turbo guys use it in their chillers so they dont drip or sweat.

I'm sure there will be sevral cameras out, it would be nice to have everyones runs filmed so we can post them all up... plus, like I said before, the pics are a must, looks like were going to have a pretty good turnout....

I dont wanna volunteer anybody for it, but if someone wants to, then feel free

Looks like I'll be running so I'll most likely have my head buried in the laptop a good portion of the day...
