UPDATE:

Ran the sucker at E-town today. It was 1/8th only but still a good event to get used to launching with the extra cubes.

I went to the track with the Thermoquad unchanged from the pumpgas 408 and with the timing backed down to be safe.

First pass of the day blew the tires off and ran a "meh" 7.78 @ 94mph.

It took a few passes to get used to the extra power off the line and to make a few timing adjustments but whittled the ET down and qualified 3rd out of 14 cars with a 7.56.

I ended up moving thru the quick 8, winning my first race and a much faster car red lit in the semi's and I ultimately lost to Ed Cook.

Best pass of the day.... 7.42 @ 96.17.

Looks like a 7.42 is equivalent to an 11.60 or so in the 1/4. Not too shabby for the first time out with no dyno tuning.
