That's insane! Are you spraying the full shot off the line or have it on a controller/rpm? My best is a 1.53 and I had my converter modified by Circle D.

Lol...those of us who have raced our modified Corvettes expect nothing from GM. I think we all live by the motto "if you want to play, you gotta pay."

See this is what I'm talking about. Don't worry about your warranty and mod away. GM's got your back.

I was able to get a 1.48 Friday night. Very happy with that for now as it was on less power than last year with the 1.53 best.
