Not bad for a stock motor and single cp3 7000 lb truck. I started in the high 12.6's and after messing around with what rpm to leave at and tire pressure I was on the right path to hitting 12.4's. Unfortunately it got too foggy and they closed down the track for the night. 60ft was 1.778, and obviosly the e.t. was 12.501 at 107.89. Everyone kept on telling me to take off my front bumper because it weighs around 200lbs but I didn't feel like it. I did drop the front all the way and clamp the leaf springs. Ran 35-65 meth-water mixture because I forgot not to fill my tank up all the way last week. I think that with a 60% or higher concentration of meth and taking off the front bumper I could hit 11's.

Congrats on the MPH that is fast...:D

I think you are giving too much credit to the water meth.... The consensus is 200lbs= .1 for us... I doubt however doubt the higher concentration of meth giving your .4 or about 80 more horsepower

Thanks guys. You're right about the meth, but from when I dynoed, going from WW fluid to 100% meth got me 70 more hp so I might try running straight meth next time.

I drove around for a while with 100% and it was pretty evil, no rattle just some white smoke at start up.

Also you guys need to remember I have an ARB replacement bumper on the front. It's not exactly light.
