After a best of 1.442 / 6.691 / 10.473 @131.853mph last season with bolt-ons and the stock un-ported 2.60 eaton my goal for the 2009 season was to run 9.99 @ 135mph with the addition of a 2.60 pullied TVS + TB.I acheived the mph on my 1st try with a 10.38 ET but was struggling with traction issues which took about 3 outings and 10 runs to correct with minor suspension adjustments.With temps in the mid 70's I ran 1.467 / 6.498 /10.118 /137.485 and then improved to 1.444 / 6.436 / 10.035 / 137.71 with temps in the low 60's.Yesterday with temps at 50 degrees I ran 1.420 / 6.347 / 9.879 / 140.60 and achevided my goal.As you can see I usually get a 0.05 reduction in ET with every 10 degree drop in temps and I also had added a high-flow VMP TVS inlet elbow that Justin said could net me between 10-15RWHP on my set-up which I feel it did by my ET.Here is a video of the 9.87 run in my 07 GT500 along with the 11.36 in my 2010 GT500.

Also looks like you had a nice tail wind!!!!

Come to Mass. then!

Congrats OP, thats awesome! What RPM are you leaving the line at?

Tailwind of about 15-18mph it was a little to cold and the sun came and went with light rain sprinkles a couple of times which hurt traction.I wasn't able to get my 2010 GT500 to hook on the stock goodyears so after 2 try's I went to the slicks and my 1.42 60' in my 07 was good but could have been better as it spun and didn't lift the drivers side wheel as she usually does when I 60 in the mid 1.40's.

I leave the line a 5000rpm and shift at 6300rpm.
