    It's got "updated" axles.
    and maybe some down-dated items.

    A pair of strange axles should be worth a tenth or two easily over the stock ones ,if tuned correctly :D:D:D ...

    Well the strange are replacing the Mark Williams axles so dont think that is gonna make anything faster, I think all the other changes should drop the 60 foot times by atleast .25 and the 1/8th times by .75. I just hope we can keep it straight. One last weekend to test and tune before the Thaw, gonna be a busy weekend, IF the changes dont work, the motor is coming apart next week to do the final changes, I hope the changws to date have made the major difference but we will see Saturday or Sunday. The last 2 weeks we have gotten rain/ slowed out from the track, Neighbors aint to happy with all the 60ft starts in the street.

    BAck to thrashing

    I was just kidding about the axles making it faster ,but im anxious to see the other changes your refering to .If you have infact dropped .75 in the 1/8 then you should be close to what my car used to run before the changes i made to it over the winter .Good luck to you guys with your mods BTW .I hope it works out as planned :)...
