so this is what it has come to, we traded our distributor, 9/16" wrench, timing light, weights and springs for a $10 wire and a $300 laptop. Winning?

Goodguys 16th Southwest Nationals, Scottsdale AZ
 

the weekend started great, Friday morning I ran the warmup and the car felt great, a ton of RPM and smooth on the course, with 2 runs before lunch and two runs after lunch, we qualified top ten (in forth actually)

Saturday morning and the top ten get two runs to get in the finals! for the last four spots.....my first run is a DNF I didn't come to a complete stop after the run in the stop box....only one more chance to get in so I really push it on the cold track at 9am and I run a 70.153, good enough to get into the shot out but I have a one cone penalty making my time a 71.1XX, pretty good and after everyone else runs theres one car left Jimi Days AMX, and after a good run Jimi runs a 70.5XX clean! no cones so I was out of the last spot and Jimi was in

You've made a lot of changes to Jane, how'd they do?

I have been very happy with all the changes, the first day on the track I was nervous at Scottsdale, and the guys over at MSD actually came to the car and hooked up Janey on there lap-top to clean up or make sure the ignition programs was working great, they moved the grounds and tested the outputs, and shes a happy Jane now, the suspension is very good I am trying to squeeze more out of her so even now (Monday) I'm heading to Crosbys shop to change a few more things!, and with the carbon panels added to her, I weighed her at the Ridetech booth and shes just over 3200lbs, not bad for a rain or shine daily driven girl with radio, heater and dynamat on floor, doors and roof grocery getter

Good to hear -Jane's looking real good. :thumbsup:

Can you get a copy of before and after alignment and corner weight readings please? Cros wouldn't have access to a chassis dyno would he?

straight and still straight, Vinny the guys over at bridges do the alignment, no computer, no printout, I took it to them with the camber I wanted and said make it work
