Believe me, if you get the ideal conditions like we had last night (50-60* and low humidity), you will break your own records, too.
yeah, but im in south GA bro. Gonna be another month before we see 60.
There is a big DSM thing here next weekend. This is the same track I ran my 117mph at last april....we'll see what happens.
Why don't you try and come down, tons of DSMs and Evos are always there.

I'd love to come down there for a dsm/evo meet, but that's a bit far, haha. Hmm, wait...the wife is out of town for the weekend, so what better to do than that? I'll think about it.

idk, 11.5 on stock turbo is crazy, looks like hes going for curt browns records huh??? i cant believe hes trapping almost 120mph???

He's not concerned with Curt Brown at all, nor his record. Sean said his goal with the Evo is to make the fastest STREET car setup possible, because that would appeal the most to people like you and me. He's trying to go as fast as he can without weight reduction, without race gas, without building the engine or head, and that's what impresses me. I am of from the same school of thought: make the most out of less.
Yes, I was incredibly impressed by the 119.5mph, also, especially on the 9.8 hotside. He showed me his AEM EMS logs and his boost was going no higher than 24psi and was tapering to as low at 17 by the end of 4th according to the MAP sensor.
holy crap that some good driving. im trying to work on my full throttle shifts but it just seems so abusive. how do u not hit the rev limiter every time. do u guys just not use the clutch at all? i cant do it!

I have yet to change anything else, but I now have a SS clutch line in hand and will be installing that while removing the restrictor next week. This combined with a base flash from Al for the extra 200rpm is what I hope will get me into the 11s next weekend.

Power shifting is banging in the gears without the clutch which is not really recommend ... LOL

I'm gonna adjust my clutch this weekend!!
