Its been about three years and 20xxx miles since I put the supercharger on the car. Its been about five or six years since my last trip to the drag strip. With weather permitting I'm going to the weekly test and tune tonight.
The weather is iffy though. Even if it doesn't rain, the humidity and temperature are pretty high here in the St. Louis area. As long as they'll allow me, I will make some passes and get some numbers tonight.
Did some test launches yesterday to get a feel for the car. I haven't really flogged her since the new clutch was installed. If the surface is good, I think she will do fine. If not, 1st gear will be useless but most of us are accustomed to that anyway.
My pops is taking his Lightning down as well. This will be his first trip to the drag strip ever. I think he's excited, I know I am. I'll post up my times, assuming I get to run. Let you all know what happens and what 12k in performance and suspension mods does for a 115xxx mile car. God, don't let it break.
