Ryan my friend the thing people dont get is frist off how some days i run well and other days i dont. There have been days when car would hook realy well and then other nights when 100 feet later still wondering were traction is.

I have had car out on ETs and been all over the road 1st to 2nd was not back but when 3rd and u have car all over then the same with 4th it shows a prob is there in the susps.

I was at HK on ETs a few weeks ago. The frist few pass were ok as the night went on the car started to have probs. What happend was lower tork boxs and had to box and fix them. Now thats part of the game. Since the T bird has been together i have beat on it almost every week, I have yet to get a full spray pass i did do few part pass's but ended up finding other probs.

Whiped a cam out so what did i do? I went with a full roller setup with crane roller lifters and not that resto fit . I have had balancer fail and was lucky i cought it as it walked half way off.
I have had tranny prob and clutch die, No big deal thats all part of trying to make heaver then stang car go.

As for how much i beat people I tend to only beat them by a tad.
One thing people can say is i top out good and i tend to catch people at the end of what there so called 1/4 is,
Most runs that are done seem to be less then a 1/4 and u have to wonder
if say HK was a full 1/4 how much would i beat some of the cars that were 2 to 4 car out on me in the frist 100feet but only win by half a car at the end on a short run when i have lot more MPH.

Now dont take this as crying or a cop out but just to the people that have see my car run and have seen me chase down and catch up.
There is more in my car and time will tell u all know i'm not going anywere and alot of people have been watching me have good and bad days for a long time.
