so i was doing the math here....

im 22 weighing in at 158lbs... not sure what you weigh but that could save you some lbs possibly. i know my second run would be faster than the first if i ran it due to crapping my pants on the first run so therefore even more weight shaved off the total vehicle weight. just some food for thought.

you have any motor pics?

Well im 20 weighing about 260lbs so yes you would prolly be a bit quicker if you could handle it.

The car was close to full weight on that pass.. It is a 402 ls2 runs consistant 11.00's on the motor and i have only sprayed it 2 times running 9.96 and 9.91 on the 100 shot with 1.48 and a 1.39 60 ft. The car has underwent some weight reduction this winter, we got rid of the ABS. but all tubular front suspension from UMI on the car put Kirky seats,speed inc light weight carpet. And a new Liberty Fiberglass hood.etc... the only bad thing is we had to install a 8.50 certified cage in. Hopefully with all this and 100 or 200 more shot it should really move out this season.. Sory i don't have any recent engine pics.
