RYU, That's awesome what you did. Listening to your sponser and giving it another try when you did the 11 second pass and you were going to hang it up. I wish I would've done the same thing before I switched over to the RED. I never did the 1/4 mile on my stock. Miami only has the 1/8 and Moroso was closed during the time I wanted to switch over. Good luck with the RED. You're going to love it.

Congratulations on an incredible job. Having a 10 second Evo is a NO JOKE deal. Congratulations also to TTP for doing a great job of tuning. Keep up the good work and results!

Thanks Tom. Some of your R&D aided me in making decisions on the combination of my setup. I can full heartedly say that you have been a great asset and inspiration to this community.

Thanks for the kudos, but ideas and parts are only part of the equation, as you well know. The driver has to do it too and you certainly stepped up to the plate. Without the tune, the best drivers and engines in the world can't get the job done. Even though there may only be 2 of you involved, that makes it the team and in this case, the team did it well.

I couldn't agree with you more about this being a team effort. TTP has been very generous in the time and effort they have invested in my car and myself and I'm ecstatic that I was able to hold up my end as the driver to reach the payoff. The next phase with the Red on the Stock Block should be very fun and interesting as it develops. TTP FTW!

Around 6400rpms but there's still alot of dialing in I need to do with tire pressure and such. 1.55 on these tires is nice for a first time run but there is definitely room for improvement.

Yes, you cannot expect 1 pass with new tires to have the car dialed in its best. Its great what's been accomplished, but in the end, you ripped the stickers off the new tires at the track and run what you brung on one 1320' attempt.

Patience is a virtue. We have had others much closer to 10's before but grew impatient. You were almost in the same boat. Taking the time to smell the roses and going back out brought you great results.
