I was hoping to do much better than 14.1. I really dont know what went wrong on the second run. I had the tires down to 12 pounds on the first run (forgot to check them when I put them on) so I aired them up to 18 and they didnt spin. I know my rockers are making noise because theyre out of adjustment (found that out last night) but I doubt that was the issue. ---

> [@K20powerz](#): > > Jeez Paul, you better be back next week bangin off 13’s! Im probably done with the track for the year. Saturdays are a complete clusterfuck and theres probably going to be 300+ cars there Wednesday and the car might not be done. I need to get the rockers adjusted and replace the U joints- theyre completely shot and the driveshaft vibrates alot now. Theres always next year. > [@94Gt5.0](#): > > My rockers are a little outta adjustment too, you can hear em at idle aand shit, but i can still rip off good times…You gotta launch it harder and shift like a mother fucker! Mine are pretty bad- I can hear them while driving and at idle. When I try launching hard it seems like I cant shift very well. Ive got a B&M Ripper and it seems like a piece of shit- very notchy and goes into gear hard sometimes. Ive got a problem with not being able to focus on the tach so I just shift when the motor winds out. Sometimes I might let it wind out too much- thats why I lost to Jason’s H2 with my other car. ---
