Scared me off? LOL! I don't know about you guys but I was watching the Bears last night when you posted up this threrad.
I'll be there, but I don't think you will be seeing any 10's out of me unless the track and weather conditions are perfect...even then it's going to be a stretch. The Hmuch heavier stock wheels are going to be mounted on the car, I have to send the Dymags back to the Manufacturer.
If the temps dip into the lower 50's early in the evening as predicted 11.20's is a realistic prediction on the bottle.

I'm not sure how many big numbers I'm gonna post. I still have not recieved my new racing harnesses, they said my other ones were not approved so as soon as I go sub 11.5 they will kick me off the track, considering I can run 11.5's in my sleep with this car now it might be a short 1 or 2 pass evening. I would be very happy to pull of an 11.2 and get asked to leave

Jim, do they post your 60's on the scoreboard at that track when you run? If so, when you run look up at the board and check your 60'. If it isn't good LET OFF! That way you wont get kicked off the track until you get a good launch. Don't waste that weather, I'm waiting for you to report back with some KILLER times!

Earlier is better than later, that tech line usually gets crazy by 5:30 pm. I like showing up around 4:00-4:30, but then again I'm sure most of you guys have real jobs.

They would not let me run. These guys are getting smart, they must keep stuff on file. I made it through tech with no problem, told them the car only goes very high 11's, proceeded to the staging lines where I was stopped by an official that said " this car runs low 11's, we need to see your harnesses" Bye Bye...see you when you get some SFI harnesses.
They would not even give me and my buddy out money back. I am supposed to get my new sparco harneses by Friday.
