Another Stage 1 RennTech runs 11.66 @ 120.48

Moroso last night.

Pretty strong head wind; however, temp was decent (65F).

Ran almost exactly what Fiske ran a few months back, except he got his stock tires to hook as well as my drag radials.

The only information I know is that the outside temp. gauge in my car read between 65-67 all night, and that they were predicting scattered showers. It rained all day today, so evidently I got lucky.

I just dropped my BFG's DR off at tire kingdom for them to order me a new set because the ones I had were defective.... I should have the tires by the end of the week ( shipping from S.C. ) and I think I will try to make it to moroso either friday or possibly the midnight madness 2/16 from 6pm till 1am.. maybe we can have a meet ??

1.74 60'. Mph is on par for the modifications.

Stage 1 RennTech is pulley modification and ECU tune only. No modification to exhaust or intake. Worth about 50 rwhp and 50 rwtq.
