well finally got everything together on Saturday . First t&t for the year only full day one before championship starts in feb .
I must say it is different than the last 12 or so years of footbraking .
Tree was run on pro tree so that didn't help .
Weather was terrible , 91-101F 3500-4100DA and blowing a gale almost direct headwind .
Leaving at 3300 only car got within 0.005 of best ever sixty, went 1.480 , and ran et similar to what it ran at 2900-3000DA with no head wind .Best 10.718@14.19 3700DA , I think wind eased otherwise ran 123mph's
So that appears a good improvement , will be good to see how it goes with a bit cooler and no wind .
BUT
darn does the motor zing up with the new 8" converter . Certainly hits the shift light faster/earlier . Completely different to my old trans/vert , so I will need to make a fast adjustment .
Not sure whether I may raise the shift a little as am only shifting at 6000
May also move button from shifter area ? but think I will try a street meet to double check
