Yes on both accounts.

I rebuilt the engine. Put to big a cam in it and the intake was also a poor choice. It had very a very high rear gear in it and add all that up and it was incredibly slow.

I shallow staged it the first time I raced it......used only first and second and the next time I raced it....I deep staged it and had it stalled as high as it would go and just let go of the brake.....I was hitting good Rt's like that...
I think it slowed down about 1 second with those changes.

Way too slow for me.....17 seconds. I was in between racecars and did it for fun...

Lost in the semis by .001 pedaling with the radio on and looking out the back window....LOL
