Thanks,
I use the back seat so an NHRA legal cage isn't possible for now. In a couple of years when it will be relegated to 2nd vehicle status I will be installing one.
I haven't really done anything to the interior other than adding an Speed Of Sound pillar pod and an aluminum bezel around the shifter boot.

In 2007 I was running 26" tires and 3.55 gears in the FFW pic which allowed me to run softer suspension and get a better 60' time (1.52) but I wasn't running out 4th gear.
In 2008 I have gone to 28" slicks and 4.10 gears but the tires rub the fender wells unless I run the rear suspension on full firm. This has pushed my 60' times up by over 1/10th to 1.64.
With a set of Bogart rims on the back and softer suspension I should be able to get 1.4 - 1.5 second 60' times which translates to 2/10ths - 3/10ths in the 1/4 mile without even running skinnies up front.

How was FFW?? I totally missed it this year  |
Thanks,
I was trying to find traction with the new tires and I almost stuffed it into the wall on Saturday. Then on Sunday I lost the alternator and didn't run.
With the amount of partying we did it was probably a good thing.
Here's the last timeslips of the season. If you notice the 3 slips are within 0.002 seconds of one another which isn't too bad for a car with a manual trans.
The speed through both the 1/8th and 1/4 mile traps is way off.
I almost forgot to mention the most important part. The car is sporting a custom belt tensioner and gripper plate which I designed along with my cousin. We are currently selling them on our website. We are also selling them to Whipple Superchargers.
