Finally
Just a touch and go. Went to sac/raceway Sunday with new motor and tune. Did a 22~23psi run and ran a 9.60 at 140mph. I was only going to do a partial run to be sure the suspension was halfway correct, but after launch, it felt so good I stayed in it. The car was straight as an arrow. The car has more in it... It's a start. More to come.

IIRC ThinJim rebuilt his 2G CL into a balls-out drag racer.

Here's a clip of the run. I haven't had a chance to view it. This was upload by the person who shot the movie.
