Here are some pics. The ones on the track are of JDM03.

The red truck pictures are of my brother’s new toy... Which has stupid amounts of power and is a burn out machine...

The car felt good, it was pulling really hard down low, but it felt like it was running out of breath at 4500 rpms or so.

I need to hook a scanner up to it and see what the timing is doing since the stage 2 computer is notorious for pulling a lot of timing…

i hope you got your 60's confused....cause if you pull a 2.1 sec 1/8th, you should be about 3.14 @ 325mph...
