    The car was leaving the line hard and pulling all the way thru the stripe. Bullet made a custom grind cam to work with my heads which are on the small side for the 505. It was my first time at the track with the new combination.... I improved my old 10.24 to a new 10.03 just by changing camshafts.

    I will never buy another off the shelf camshaft. I owe one to Bullet cams and Pro Systems Carbs.

    Damn holmes...just a tiny bit more traction and you will be in the 9s. Of course, you already know that...

    What is your 60ft?

    Love that little car. -Abone.

    Glen, I gotta agree, no off the shelf cams for us either. Bullet always does good by us.

    Thanks for the kind words. The first burnout of the night needs to be a good one and I didnt do a good one, the new motor and HP definitely requires a better burnout, I used to just clean the tires off and be ready to go.

    I think were taking the Hayabusa to Mesa tonight.

    its actually pretty heavy at 2570 w/o driver, the floor is bullet proof and ties the frame and cage together to make it very strong.

    Its a Flip camera they record great video in HD and their cheap...Ryan showed a sample about 6 months ago and i was sold, its mounted to the cage.

    I agree on the cams. I've got an old custom ground comp in mine and it gets RAUNCHY!!! No track times yet as it just got on the street.
