OH, that was before the parts too, so its stock except for Code III ,Jerry Tune and Code/Let III intake. Met Brandon of Code III, what a nice guy and very knowledgeable about the C32 as well. We are working it all out and the Pigs about to land soon and you'll be seeing Stevie Nicks again.

Nice job Glenn. Your mph gained on the send 1/8 is good too, so the car obviously was pulling well up top also.
As for Jake, I'm sure the damp track had a lot to do with his ET suffering.
Sorry to hear about Victor's CEL issue. My CEL came on today on the way home from the office. I'm wondering if the 100 octane has anything to do with it.

LOL! Love the thread name. If traction was an issue it always leaves you with a good case of the "what ifs." That is a stout 1/4 run. good job! It only seems like C32/55 guys just keep getting faster.

Spring will be here soon and we can do it again. I just really need to get some traction here and only alternatives are a Quaife or / or drag radials. The car has low 12s in it for sure. With the new pulley wrap, it pulls amazingly strong from the digg, but in the afternoon, I was just getting sideways the whole way down. Best part is, this car has never thrown a CEL. BTW, for those who PM'd me, I ran 93 Pump Gas as I didn't have time to stop for 100 and the station wasn't open yet (Marathon).

Thanks Big J, I had to leave and thankfully I did, tons of 294 accidents or I'd still be driving. Police activity was crazy. Did you guys see the local cop run down the strip at 16.5?? It was a riot. About 11:45 AM, this local guy pulls up in a police Chevy (looked like Impala or Malibu) and did two runs? 
Hey Jake, I think you have the all time Dragtimes record for a C32 run now?? Congrats man, you deserve it. I posted mine last night.

Yup, got my time up there last night as well. Next track event we will have you in the top 10. You need some drag tires...Nitto 555r's are quite nice and fit the stock rims well...

LET C32 2002
I can't believe I missed this thread
I found it doing a search on tires
But congrats Glenn I have to wait til I finally hit the 12s
Now that the misfire is over I can resume next season...but be warned everyone that if you drag your car as little as I do well things like plugs, wires, coil packs, etc...will have a shorter life span.
Also using the wrong octane gas can help

Well using a regular camera to record digital video is no where in comparison to a decent digital video camcorder which I have and will bring from now on...so it was the run with the C6TT huh? Its hard to look at your time when I was concentrating on the C6TT(what a beast of a sleeper) if no one knew his boost was dialed in at lowest setting and it still moved to 126mph
