So if you had it at track 2 times and I've seen you run 2 different days in 11s when was the 10.8?
Last time out had 2 runs, first run car vibrated on slowdown, second run it felt like it was going to shake apart, found a broken pressure plate and broken gearbox case, yet still ran that.

On street tyres it can only take half accelerator all of first and second gears, if you looked carefully at that drag day you will see what happens with too much throttle on the first pass, so how can it not be slower?

When it ran 10.8 I had slicks on, I reckon it would have gone faster if they let me continue, as shifting a TKO quickly needs alot of practice, its also made 33mph gain in the back half.


There it is, but I really dont know how that helps Brad
