Default Still waiting for him to put up my 12.7 at 112 mph. But then that was just the first day

at the track. That will drop plenty on the next trip.

Default Well let see. I was only running 20psi on a turbo that runs on 30.

Then take the fact that I have to ride the clutch all the way thru 1st gear and it slips most of the way down the track since the pressure plate was flexing and a part had a crack in it. I am #16, the yellow slip was against my friends evo that ususally runs 12.2-12.3's at that track and I was reeling him in quick even though I took him off the line but hit the 7800 rpm rev limiter in 1st gear which killed the power when I got into 2nd. I also had to get off the throttle half way thru 4th gear since the CEL started to flash because of multi misfires, which I think were caused by blowing out the spark at 25psi. MPH would have been in the 118-120 if I did not let off.

Default Break in a iron clutch?

Even on my kevlar clutch I had it ready for racing in 2 days.

Default Do you know how to drag race?

Its all about having just the right amount of traction to do the job. I am not dumb enough to go out and run 20 lbs of air in the tires on drag radials.
