Is that due to the fuel level in the tank?

I'm sorry if it had been posted, but does Elliot have any weight reduction and was this on pump gas?

Thanks! I broke my stock diff and rear driver axle not to long ago. So I bought the rear end off the car Craig was parting out. We put a Quaiffe in and this was the third time I've been to the track. And perfect prep always works.

Yes it was the lack of fuel in the tank. I thought there was more in it. My fault! And my car has both front and back seats pulled. There is a carbon race seat with a roll brace that bolts in. And I'm tuned on Q16. The car dyno'd at 549hp/594tq before we left. Other than that, this run had stock fronts at 55psi and clk wheels with Hoosier radials 22psi and stock battery.
