Lots left in the tune, still not running the 900 rwhp "tune up".

Were still leaving off idle-lol!!!!!

I'm pretty sure were going to see an 8 second pass out of an RPM 4L65tranny this season!

That is great, a 9.25 backed up with a 9.28... impressive for sure.

I did almost throw up with the camera shake...

Just kidding, that is awesome work.
