8.9???? I ran a 9.0 in my at the time stock mach 1 and this was at 5300 ft above sea level with a DA of 7200. Midpipe, catback and some drag radials and I was running 8.5s-8.6s at the same altitude.

Race legal is a very very hard track to cut good times on. There is no traction there at all, 95% of rear wheel drive cars will not hook.

What day do we wanna meet down there? The next race date is Oct. 8th, but I know for sure I can't make that one. My vote is for Barona Oct 16th, its a saturday. And the cars will have much better traction, Race Legal sucks for traction period.

Its a small 500 rwhp race tune from Nick at Dmaxtuner. Theres more in it, I just haven't gotten everything sorted out yet. I need more fuel to break 7.99 on nitrous.

I'm in Afghanistan until the end of November.

I am stockish... but you are too far...

I am stockish just like you. :lol:

OP...where in Alabama are you?

North Alabama, Huntsville dragstrip is good for me, steele, baileyton goodtime, or i might can come towards GA one weekend.

EDIT: just realized spots truck is an 05 so i may be down close to same times as him, i'll know next week with the new mods.

race legal, what a joke.. I can't hook up for chit there.. not till the top of 3rd gear can I get into it at all, otherwise I just spin the tires (stock street tires) and I though that Hawaii Raceway Park was bad 10 years ago..

You limped it a gear below 5th? I'm running stock tranny, and launching it spooled on the button, so if it was gonna break, it'd do it on the launch. You better learn to lock that OD out, and run her in tow/haul son :banana: Or get the cha ching for a stage 5 tranny lol

If you ever make it to Phenix City Dragway, let me know. Might be willing to blast down I-85 a few times as well...as long as we stay below the speed limit, of course!
