LT Headers Track time
Just came back from the track. Car is running good except for traction issues. Had 9 runs. Best ET was 12.1 @ 120.4 mph which was the first run. Last run was 12.324 @ 121.75 mph. Best time before the LT Headers was 12.1 @ 115.75 mph. So, my trap speed have increased by 6mph with the LT Headers. Here is the last slip for the day...

That's a nice increase! What were the temp differences between the two runs?

You get those 60 times down to 1.6-7 and you should be mid 11's..

Was running down the track with my 19's. Could not get my 60' down any longer since I started hearing the dead body thumb sound. I was running 1.7, 1.8 then. I only had a 1.9 60' once during the runs.
