| Just got home from the drag strip w/ hindle Very impressed!!! Still no where close to what some of the other members have done, but I was happy with what I did. My best last year with just a D&D slip-on was 11.02 @ (132.?? I think). Today, 10.645 @ 134.00 You know I installed the full Hindle and PC3 last weekend. Still amazed with the power difference and how smooth the throttle's power curve feels. |

What were you 60 footers, looks like about 1.8 to 1.9`s |

Yep, 1.8's. I've had one 60ft time in the high 1.6's and a few in the 1.7's last year, but all 4 runs today where in the 1.8's. I'll be happy when I can get to the low 1'7's 1.6's consistantly. I know thats kiling me at the end. |

My best with a D&D slip on was 11.02, on my last run last year. |

| Re: Just got home from the drag strip w/ hindle Yeah, I've seen one 929 and a guy that lives near me actually with a 54 with extended s/a, lowered, and alot of bling-bling so he can go faster(ha, joking); but anyway, he runs high 9's with it. I doubt I will ever get that low, but really don't care too. I just have fun running it down the track and would like to get very consistant, even if it is a 10.8. I be able to win money if I'm consistant. |
