Jamison, thats basically the same mods I had on my car, except I had a 100 shot. You know how mine ran when we ran em on hwy 31.

I think on street tires, he might break into a low 13, but thats cause he'll be spinning like crazy. Drag radials will help, but not that much. With that tall of a gear and a 150 shot, slicks are gonna be a requirement to get that car to hook properly, and then you can kiss his tranny goodbye. POS t-45.

Don't forget it may be harder to hook up for him with the colder outside temps, unless he really knows how to drive.

Was this the guy with the white Cobra, and the white Cobra snake sticker on the back window?

It was about 85 that day so I cant really compare it to cool weather. He has an after market trans. He's gone through like 3 t45's.

Hmmm, I used to think nitrous was a bad power adder since you didn't have it all the time. Well, I now belive that an Eaton supercharger is even worse. At least with nitrous, you can pick when you are going to have the power and not have to rely on weather all the time.

So, Jamison... now that it's getting cold, do you want to have that rematch? This time we I will have slicks too.
