That much timing amounts to LOTS of power.
Totally agree and thats something that im going to have to work on.

Have you considered a remote cooling tank? My mom has one on her modded E55 and really helps with heat soak. Pat and Kurt use them for their cars for running Texas mile. Can fill with ice in trunk and really lower iat's. Just a suggestion. Drag racing takes alot of seat time to get a good e.t. Just wait for cooler weather and try again.

Yeah iv seen them in there shop when i go over there. I might also look into that. So many things to do and what not to do. Just got to make the right choice and hopefully that will work. I do need to get out there when it is cooler though. It was very humid and hot as hell that night. gotta love that texas weather. thanks for the advice
