yeah, there's some things we just wouldn't sacrifice. But seriously, I imagine i can get another 10lbs or so off. I've also got my eyes set on the new m/t wheels. 12lbs for the 15x8s and 8lbs for the 15x3.5s.

I weighed some 15x8" Bogart Force 5's this past weekend, 8 lbs a piece. Thats 6 lbs a piece lighter than the my 15x8" draglites.

Good luck! If you want a V6 to run against. Im going to island on friday. Im hoping to drop a tenth or two. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I should be hitting up the track tomorrow as well we will see how things go, trying a few different things, doubt there will be much of a difference.

Sniff sniff.... I won't.... damn bum knee!

No new bests. :( Bunch of 13.8s. I think my DRs are overhooking and causing it to bog badly. I'll try some more psi next time. Also, it's no longer a sleeper 'cause everyone knows who I am before I run. [img]smile.gif[/img]

It starting to warm up there as well?

86 degrees today :(

I think you need to drop that rev-limiter thing you're using and just eyeball the RPM's. The tires are apparently hooking enough to raise the RPMs up quite a bit.

It actually won't let me go above 4500 for some reason. There is a problem with the program that I am trying to resolve. I would like to try 5k or more.

13 SEC
V6

Yea, the pewter SS couldn't drive worth crap, and the red LT1 t/a was pretty junky. The red LS1 TA spun to low 12's though....

Craig, I think he meant that you should stop using the 2-step until the problem is fixed, and just eyeball the rpm at 5,000 or whatever you want to launch at.

no, I can set it to 7000 or higher and floor the pedal. It won't go past 4500.

[12secondv6]

Isn't 4,500 the neutral safety related feature?

GM/ the car.... won't allow itself to be revv'ed higher than 4500
