I went to the track last night and ran 100 octane and had really high mph which means more horsepower but lower et. I think the 30 degree difference had something to do with it. And there was a strong head wind at the track. And I'm sure I've got more excuses if anyone wants them. lol

Could also mean your 60's need work, i.e. traction

I don't have the slips in front of me but they were 14.316 and 14.271. It was pretty warm that night and i got there late and didn't have time to cool down. I bought that focuc intake you told me about. Now I'm just waiting for my 3/4 top from fast freddie. I was gonna go race tonight but the top never came.

Jake,

Let me know what you think of Fast Freddie's 3/4" top when you get it.
Thanks,

Your problem is your car is just pissed off at you because it figures if you can afford a gazillion dollars a gallon for 100 octane you should already have the MPII by now :D :D :D :D :D .....

Rick :cool:

Hey Flip, I got my 3/4 top on and it looks better than I thought it would. I will post some pics of it tomorrow. Fast Freddie did a great jod on it, when I got it I thought this doesn't look any bigger, but after I got it on WOW!
