Sounds about right. Do you run a griptec upper pulley? My truck I swear will 60' a bit harder after I switched to griptec. Seems it cuts down on that little initial slippage. I also lock the converter in first gear.. not sure if Eric does that or not I can't remember.

No griptec, 10 rib setup.

I would still have them micro mill it.. cheap insurance. Though can't argue with current results either lol.

I mean it's the 4th pass on the setup. I'm sure it'll 60' better. As it's done better before

I know, but there is always room for improvement. At that ET he will be fighting for thousandths of a second and I believe a griptec pulley should be on everyone's trucks who race. Could be the small difference between a 9.00 and an 8.99 and I want to see him go faster.

Yes JJ* I have also have been waiting for that 8 second slip*

I’m sure I’ll be getting that call real soon *

when all said and done he should been 8.80s to 8.7os*

He definitely has the (60) FT down *

If that was my Truck I would not touch a thing *

that pass told Me his setup is on the money *

to run that Et and That MPH in (87) hhhdegrees and DA of 2500 *

that truck is where it needs to be*

Marty don’t touch anything*

tire pressure/ shock settings/ Leave it as is*

the only thing i would change is How high you can come out on the converter*

on a good air day and a well prepped track if you come out harder you will go 8s*

Marty you definitely can drive just do everything the same exact way Except for the launch if the track can hold it*

If you want to make any changes that’s fine ,but do it after you run just as she’s right now *

Whatever timing you have.Whatever boost you have right now * (((((don’t TOUCH IT )))))

Marty what you forgot I’ll never learn, but I can tell you this*

I KNOW OUR (((((Lightnings)))))



wishing you all the best*
