Mike, You know what happens every time I check in at tech? They say "pop the hood",and point to the front of the car. Never fails. Haha. And NO one expects it to run 10's. I love the track.

Yeah, people were surprised to me me running low 11's at 132-133. They know me very well at my local track, and I can't run there anymore until I get safe, al least all out. Feels good to be the underdog, don't it? Mad respect for the Tippy car!!!!

I had a cop do that once....I stared in amazement for a few seconds then yelled "get out an APB, someone stole my engine!!"

I then looked at him and smiled and when he finally figured out what was going on, he let me go.

Anyway, Walnut told me you trapped 131. I should know better than to listen to anyone who names his car "Lexi".

Video Video and time slip of my 10.88 at 133.14mph
After adding the plenum, TB and piping, I went to the track to test it out. Here is the video (all three runs) and time slip (best) from yesterday. The pbox didn't grab satelites for the 10.88 run but I was able to get the other two passes. Temp was 96 and humidity was 90+. All runs were done on street tires. PS2's. Thanks to my buddy Dustin for filming for us.

Here is a comparison between my previous 10.96 and the 10.94 from yesterday

to quote MBailey,
1st Gear - 5% slower!!
2nd Gear - 9% faster
3rd Gear - 5% faster
4th Gear - 4% faster

Shifting does sound lazy. In 3rd, it sounds like it is floundering a bit too? I think an TCU flash is gonna make a world of difference...

Shifts are taking forever...almost as slow as Paulie and his manual.
