Bert, Julain and my self have 1.6 to 1.7 60ft so I think Its going to come down to shifting. I think Bert is going to spank us on Low boost! He plans on keeping it in 4th, with his calc, he's good for 135plus in that gear. I have to shift to 5th and so does Juian, that = at least .3 of a sec.

I would love to borrow some slicks! Its going to be one fun night. 30 cars + 3hours of track time = lots and lots of runs!
I will have spare axles. If you guys want some transmissions the next day give me a call! Or if you pay me before Ill bring some to the track. CD009 trans with lessthen 2k miles on them.

I think your probably spot on with your prediction for Julian but I think Alberto will break into 10's

If Alberto keeps his car together I think he'll hit 10's
AJ hit 11.00 with a 1.5 60' with similar power levels but if I remember correctly Alberto is making more power in higher RPM's... Cleaner power band!
If the temp. is around 75, my prediction is:
Alberto - 10.92 @ 129 w/ 1.5X 60'
MRC - 11.24 @ 126 w/ 1.6X 60'

well i think you will be close on your predictions as well jay.
it takes a lot to get from 11.5 to 11.0, i would love to see you do that on your lowest boost level alberto, the best of luck to you both and we are anxiously waiting to see some faster quarter mile times from the Z community.
hopefully you will just come back and show that some of the stuff we done isnt all that easy to do
