I must say it was an absolute pleasure, and you and Mike did an amazing job on this event... as for Brandi, I think Jared enjoyed the ride...

His other name is......I'll pm it to you.... Lol...
I'll hook you up... Got a spot we can do a 40-170 pull... It doesn't have to be too long, but we'll need some shut down area...

PQ, that's short shifted into second, and pull third and fourth... Well not all of 4th....70-170 would be rather quick...

So, Corey and I have made a few decisions.
We are going to build a custom set of shorty headers for the turbo's, to free up some motor breathing ability... I am going to order a new center section with a different gear set for drag racing.... I'll keep the 3.07 gears for the mile runs and for unlimited open road races, but we'll swap out center sections when needed... The gear ratio is yet to be determined... There are a few more changes to come but that's it for now...

As for the quarter, that'll depend... If I can get her to launch as she is, I'll stay where I'm at, if not, I'll have to get into 4th on the big end... Pete has offered to come out and get her dialed in on the suspension... And Corey has the power end handled... So then it'll be on me and that's seat time...
