got my new best in my car tonight, finally got that 10 second monkey off my back. next ill start power shifiting the car and go for some 10.50’s in it. my car on this pass picked up 35mph from the 1/8th to the 1/4. car usually goes 103-104 in the 1/8th but i think i had some knock between shifts so it pulled some timing, so it even affected my mph at the 1/4 too. im hoping i can get the car to 10.50 @ 135+ before the snow flies! 60’ on this pass was a 1.59 https://player.vimeo.com/video/14876105?app_id=122963 ---

lol at the bumblebees comment. curious though, what are your times at the shorter marks? seems like the car is slow getting out of there…maybe steeper gears would be beneficial? shouldnt 130-140mph range be more like a high 9-10 second pass? ---

> [@Inn-Tune](#): > > Nice work man! i have to give credit where credit is due, thanks for getting the car where its at today mike, youve spent a lot of time with the tune on my car. the car makes some badass power to pick up the MPH it does from the 1/8th to the 1/4. unfortunately all good things do come to an end, the car will probably not see the track again till next year. my transfer case apparently didnt like those 1.59 60’s and it is completely toast, i thought it was just something minor at the track, but it isnt. i was going to make another pass and im glad i didnt because i would have completely exploded my transfer case all over the track. i cant complain though, my stock 03 t-case lasted 43000 miles and a ton of power through it the last few years. time to put a built t-case in the car with the badass LSD ---

[RicerMath] On his 10 sec pass, he only trapped 95 in the 1/8th and 130 in the 1/4. Could you imagine what his 1/4 mph trap would have been if he hit 4th gear on the 103 trap in the 1/8th? ;). [/RicerMath] either way, good night for paul even though he came out broken. :tup: ---
