    You mean lying? Not at all! Just trying to figure why my GSX Stage 1 with a best 1.94 60ft time is doing a higher top speed @ 105.91 at the end of the 1/4 to your 104.63. But my slower et @ 12.90 vs your 12.83. My gears 3.64 vs your 3.42...
    Larry the Wizard probably has the answer in his brain cells.
    Still wondering though which rear tires and size were on your car as for the life of me I could never do a 1.8 60ft anything with a street tire like my BFG Radial TA's 295/50-15's. It just won't hook and blows them away. I tried all different tire pressures and also used an air bag in the rear coil spring which if I remember correctly was in the right rear. Always had to feather it out of the hole to keep from losing traction. Also removed front sway bar to maybe shift the weight to the rear to help get some better traction...Still could never get below a 1.94 60ft.
    Were you bracket racing then or just doing a solo run with that ET time? Huumm?
    There are many factors going into this and I'm sure I'm not asking everything that should be asked!?
    So respectfully...what tires and size were you running that ET with? This is how we all learn from each other!
