    How I am hitting the tires now

    Not done yet but I am starting to understand how to handle hitting the tires real hard with a stick launching at the limiter. I am running 11.0, 11.1 more consistently with my eaton in hot air. Most 60 fts are around 1.52 - 1.56 with one 1.51, but I have to keep 12+lbs in the tires so I am...

    New 10.5 Bogarts w/STIFF Sided slicks *PICS*

    **VERY LONG POST WARNING** If you want the pictures, just skip the BS and go to bottom. Sometimes the simplest minor miscalculation or two or three can really bust your balls, but we all know that right. I was using a 26" tire on 16"x10 Bogarts on my stock IRS that I had made and was told...

    3" over axle tailpipes & under axle anti-roll

    It is finished finally and back in the garage, only need to tune it now. The beautiful 3" StainlessWorks tailpipes and 14" mufflers had to go with the IRS. But the custom fabbed over axle replacement sewer pipes aren't exactly too shabby. After the MRC roll-control was welded to the 9" Moser...

    LM-1+LMA-3 dual bank AFR setup (diagram)

    Waiting on shortened StainlessWorks Hi-Flo Turbo 3" straight thru mufflers and some 3" 180* and "J" bends to fab up 3" over the axle exhaust so the only other issue left for me to finish before heading to the track was how I was going to datalog this year without a laptop. The only electronic...

    Bottle pressure control and more pics

    The interior and trunk is mostly back together, bottle is mounted at a 30* angle and I just got the NX Fire&Ice controller so that is the last of the pieces for the trunk and it is starting to look bad ass. I think I found a spot for the controller, not sure: The fan looks like it is...

    It's Alive! Oh No, It's Alive! (with pics)

    I had to fire up the SCT software for the first time in over a year and grab SCT base files for the Big Air 2400 MAF and the siemens 60lbers and figure out which end of the flasher I was supposed to use but somehow I loaded a tune for the new setup and the crossed my fingers. Managed to find...

    Current mods on my '04 Cobra

    Much of my extensive modding on my Cobra started last winter after geting bit by the track bug in 05 but seeing as I now only have about a dozen payments left, I guess I can't complain, at least if I wipeout my poor cut up Snake at the track I won't have to sell a kidney. I got ALL the NHRA...
