The temp was 73* and the DA was 1,200'.  I was testing in Pro Stock trim.  Looks like I got some work ahead of me if I want to run in the .30's at RAM weight (like unbolt some lead)   Grin

I didn't miss both shift points by 1100rpm.  The ET went down but the mph basically stayed the same, 159 to 160

There is a Jenkins 500" motor on Racing Junk.  It made 1370hp and they are asking 25k for it.  I bet 20k cash would take it.  You would only have to weigh 3,300lbs.  That is 253 more hp then me for only 75lbs.  That car can't get to 2950lbs even without me in the car.
