Ok, so it's not the best time in the world, but it's not bad either....
Considering the pig weighed in at 3950lbs and was on 20 inch street tires a 12.46 isn't bad. oh, no traction at all. 60 foot times were 2.00 on both passes.

enjoy

Nice but you can do better. Ron aka Spydershaft is running 11.89 N/A

Funny you call it Cheezwiz. My wife and daughter are always saying to me that the Grabber Orange reminds them of Macaroni and Cheese so every time we see one that's what they say."Hey there goes a Mac;n Cheese car.

hey, if you feel like loosing a little weight in your car, the spydershaft is bad ass. He has a charity ebay auction going on right now for one and it's a really nice addition to have.

Yeah i have one sitting in the garage waiting to go in along with a shit load of other goodies from gears, Adj UCA, sway bars, Relocation brackets. I am currently saving up for a Eaton LS and then will have it all done at once.

With Slicks you should be able to get into the low 11's maybe even into the high 10's

Do you have a cage and harness in it yet? That's very fast for the factory seat belt, isn't it?

Looks good though.

When you switch it to slicks, do you have a way to make the rear end squat better? With the springs it has it doesn't seem to shift any weight to the back at all...

No cage or harness yet (or ever), Don't think i will ever put that into the car.

I have to change the suspension a little. currently i haven't installed the upper control arm which is adjustable and can be set to the correct pinion angle. also the lower control arms are not low enough in the relocation brackets. I'm going to do all that stuff then try it again, then I'm done with it.
