I got a 13.84 recently on another run with the GTECH. I'll be heading to E town soon to test the accuracy of the GTECH.

Gtech is a ballpark test, better than nothing for sure. I also ran a 14.8 @ 94.5 Also a HOT and humid day at about 1,000 ' elevation. 60' was 2.20

I managed to squeak by a 14.0. It took a while, but I got it in. ESP was off, and I went through the by keeping the stick at "-". I am going to be changing tires, and removing the spare in the next run.

Z2S04, now we know what "14.0... getting closer and closer to 13.9" means. Maybe I missed your explanation when another member asked you the question on another thread :o

I just have to say that all you guys using the Hemi to it's full potential are an inspiration

I almost took it to the track, but it was pouring....I will attempt next Wednesday. Any advice would be helpful in the meantime. (Auto-Stick vs. standard Drive, revving to 2K before letting it go?)

Holding the Stick

Is there a difference between holding the stick to the left and merely leaving it to the left?
