I was just going to go back with et streets again..

So with a 1.52 60 foot and 500rwhp that got you the 6.9 with 10.8?
I think getting the slack out of the drive train does make a big difference, but i'm bad about it. I need to work on that. I do run ET streets 26x10.5 on the stock tires and i drop the hammer at 7500+. At the end of the season i was dropping it off the 8100 rpm limit with 5psi of boost. I don't think i'm going to do that this year.

The first time i ever went out on ET Streets, i snapped a stock axle like it was a twig. I've got vid of both times i've broken at the strip. I'll post them up when i find them.
