I think there's definitely room for improvement on my 16.7. I didn't do any of the things you're supposed to do(remove spare tire, tire pressure, ice down the manifold). The tire pressure probably was a major contributor to the major wheel hop I had all three runs(sorry diff). But for my first time on a strip I was satisfied with my time.

I did lower my tires to 25lbs. When I let off it hooked with no spin...That is for about 6" or so...Then my diff broke...If it would of spun, maybe I could have got a run or 2 on the diff. I am so glad everyone elses car's were fine. I guess my SVT is a pussy...Oh well...When it's fixed we are all going to go back and run on a Friday night. If I write "My Car's Pussy Hurts" on it's window maybe it will be a little tougher...HeHe It just needs some encouragement.

We don't really have a list Richard....We just organize everything through the COCeg forum. Scroll down in the main forum and there is a CO forum. Read and post there. We would love to have you out!

Kris- how high up are you? The first runs were at about mid 90's w/ low humidity. But later, as the weather changed (always does in the mtns) the temps dropped to low 80's but it became more humid. Right as I ran in the second round of eliminatons, the rain started to come. I don't think they finished much more racing after that. We lose ALOT of power here at altitude - I dynoed at about 30hp down from sea level!!!

Yeah i think we should focus on more pics of the girl in front of your cars. Just kidding, well not really :rolleyes: But just complimenting the fine young lady. Nice pics though, they look perfect. I meant the cars this time.
Colorado huh, Anyone know a Jennifer Dela Cruz works at Sun Micro Systems? She moved back out there to Colorado.
