Good point Scott! People who have never run a radial wouldn't understand or it could be said the other way around (not being a smart a$$). I've seen guys go from a slick to a radial or vice versa and the chased their tails for a while to get the car to work properly again.

Brian,
I'm not the one that made the 7 sec. or bust statement, so he needs to hook or he will be taking up a collection to get home.

I heard the weather forecast for Norwalk is 90+ degrees and a strong head wind, sounds like 7's are going to be few and far between.

Just turn things up to 14 lbs of boost, you'll be fine

Jeff would not have made the challenge bet if he did not think he had a solid chance to go there, imo.

You had to put a $15,000,000 (27 stage) EFI system in the car so that you could tune it

I would have carb tuned it for less. LOL

The right parts, the right people in your camp, the right graph in your box, the right tire pressure, and lots of testing,
