FD vs FC (I finally made a decent pass) 11.18 @ 128 *Vid*
Went back to the drag strip last night and ran some decent passes, my best was:

60' - 1.682
330 - 4.796
1/8 - 7.284
MPH - 102.13
1000 - 9.404
1/4 - 11.182
MPH - 128.44

That 1.68 60' felt really good and this run was 1/2 second better than my best previous pass.

That FC that i ran has a single 20B in it, but he was having boost troubles, on street tires, first time at the strip, and a semi-poor tune, so he had lots of reason not to run a good time, but it will soon.

Here is the vid, sorry about the quality, its complete crap:

Awesome run. I was getting sick of seeing high 11s out of big single turbo'd FDs. Let's see a 21 psi run. =)

I love the bridge, anything to help this T88 spool up is a good thing. The 1500 rpm idle isn't that bad, and the sound is just plain awesome.

I'm always up for a run, although i don't do too much on the street anymore. Too much risk, although i can be persuaded.
