That's awesome Jay! I'm looking forward to running some 28's this year also. Gonna step it up to a 150 shot also and see if I can run a little closer to ya!

Good Job Jay!

I'm surprised your MPH went up as well. I wouldn't expect your MPH to go up with a taller tire.

Went up only because I was able to stay in 3rd. With
the 26's I was shifting to 4th.

that's a mean 60ft time. What are your suspension mods?

Thanks. Again, that is flying

Im curious as well.

I'm surprised you arent breaking something. I'd be afraid I'd detonate my T45 with a launch like that.

 

[04GTBLKVERT]

Nice times!

great 60, just got some 28inch slicks also, cant wait to test them out, my best with 26's is 1.60s, Id be super happy with a 1.5x, last time at track with street tires was a 13.0 at 110 with a 2.2 60 haha so if I can get a 1.5 Im thinking I might be able to hit an 11, that would be awesome!!

Wow, I just noticed you are speedydyno tuned out of Owensboro! I'm not even an hour away from there and have been looking for someone to tune my car for me in the next month or two. I should have the 5.4 swap done this weekend and it's DEF going to need a tune asap.

I don't have a programmer or anything yet. You have any idea what the total cost would be for them to tune mine for me, being that I dont currently have a programmer? Thanks.

Congrats a 1.48 60 is getting it done!

Wow! My car would never hit a 1.48...... not even if it was launched from an aircraft carrier!
Congrats man, that is some great work! Such little mods too!

Picking the right clutch is the key.

Yep, Greg @ Speedy's has been tuning my car for about 5 years now. He's great at getting good SAFE power. My engine has 115K on the clock and a couple of hundred 150 shot passes on it.
I can't quote you prices but call Speedy's and tell them JayC has talked to you on the Corral. Greg will take care of you

 

[Tanus]

hows it feel with no rear sway bar? think its worth it for me to pull mine, Ive long since gave up on handling, haha

My lower control arms have no swaybar mounts. I don't miss it at all

Ok, thanks. Ive got another couple weeks to get the 5.4 in and get a few bugs worked out, then I'll definately be looking at getting it tuned. Sounds like you've made up my mind as to who will be getting the honors.
