Thumbs up Re: JP1738's Stocker and S/G car

Second time testing and set a new PB! 12.61 off the 13.00 index with the new intake, 15 mph tail wind, 1000 ft DA, and adjusted shift points. Thanks Jeff Miles and Darlington Dragway for the 1/4 mile testing!

OK, I have a lot of advice for you…haha…..throw the self adjusters in the garbage, You need to invest in NEW brake spring kits for the rear….AND it won’t BRAKE ( pun intended) the bank…With your hood clearance you can run a much TALLER K and N air filter…Proud of you man, you are making progress !!! More TIPs to come……..
