I think we all know his car is awesome, just have to let him know I'm jealous of his truck too!

Haha this truck is badass but unfortunately isn't mine. Did a damn good job of hauling the car over 660miles.
Some great news is the car did great. Had a bit of a scare on the early pulls as we were getting awful spark knock at around 5krpm and it would fall flat on its a face. In the process of switching spark plugs and inspecting the old ones we found that my new livewire spark plug wires I had were defective and the boots were not snapping onto the top of the plugs. Anyway we trimmed the boots back some which got everything to seat properly and this was the outcome......
Pulled clean to 6800ish rpm at 14psi peak. I'm very happy. Can't wait to upgrade the fuel system and go to E-85

Haha yeah very happy with the power curve. Feels awesome on the street. Cant wait to see what it does at the track. If the trans holds I should be in the 6's this year.

I'm a little disappointed on tonights track visit. First pass I made found the week spot in my cheap clutch and she slipped thru second and 3rd. Still ran my fastest time with a 7.3 @ 97mph. Really wanting to get on the 6's this year and I think I can make it happen. Guess the trans is coming back out.

The McLeod Street Extreme looks promising. It's rated at 700tq and 700hp. Good ratings too for street manners and lightweight pedal.

Looks to be a single. I don't need anything too fancy with the factory 10 spline input shaft.

Clutch slip pass

Clutch grabbed a bit better on this pass against a livernoise built 3v big procharger car. I was catching him at the end of the track

New exhaust - integrated tailight and got rid of the ugly plastic licence plate mounting hardware. Really missed having a bike.

Had a grudge race with a buddy of mine with a bolt on 99gt and 100 shot of nitrous. He was on full slicks and I had my mt pro radials. I'll get the vid uploaded to my youtube channel tonight and posted tomorrow. Any guesses on the outcome? 1/8 sprint.
Heres a warm up vid before I went out.

99 with bolt ons and only 100 shot.
You should have spanked him easily.
