Spacer takes all of 30 minutes-Id run the car, then put the spacer on then run it again!
Todd-weather is looking great for some nice times. Preload that drivetrain and feather the gas off the line, Capitol is sticky. Remember start at 18psi this time, and get the slicks HOT

Thanks again for the tips Bert...

I cut a 2.15 on one of my first pulls ever there with bone stock engine (full weight).
The best I could do at mason was a 2.21 (with plenum spacer, TPs, Y-pipe and atleast 100 lbs lighter).
Good luck!

If Capital is so great, why do you guys refer to it as CRAPITAL???
But, i am looking forward more to this track then MIR... Mainly because of the temp for friday evening.

BTW Todd ... I know I'm bench racing, but if you can cut a 1.7X at that track 12.9X is NOT out of the question (assuming you don't have that rev limiter problem in the top of 4th gear).

I'm definitely down for Friday. Capitol is definitely like superglue compared to mason dixon. I was making 1.9xx 60' times on street tires up there.
