Ran a new 1/4 et best tonight, made a good kill!

Ran a 14.230 @ 96.63 mph, 60'=2.120

Got challenged by a modified Tahoe and on another run a 5.0 Mustang. The Tahoe has free flowing intake, exhaust work and a loose torque converter.

These Warpspeed pipes are working pretty good along with my K & N air filter assembly and ASP underdrive pulley.

Don't know what the 5.0 Mustang had but it wasn't enough what ever he had.

Are you still stock, or now modded? You wouldn't be running slicks wouldya ?

BTW - NICE time.

No slicks. I am running 225/60/16 radials.

My mods are the Warpspeed Y & B pipes, modified factory muffler, K & N cone air filter and an ASP underdrive crank pulley. I was running 24.5 psi in the front tires and 40 in the back. I had the spare tire, jack and the board on the spare tire removed.

The Tahoe ran a 14.83. Don't know what the Mustang ran but to be fair to him I think he really blew it off the line as I jumped out a pretty good way. Maybe the only reason I beat him.

This was Street Racing night and they don't give you the other lane's times is why I don't know the Mustang's. I know the Tahoe's because he is a friend and we shared the info. Stock Tahoe's don't run near as good as his. He has intake, exhaust and a loose torque converter. He ran a 2.0? 60' time to my 2.12. Those loose converters really get you out of the hole as long as you have traction.
