Any drag racers in the houston area?
I have a cammed 01 zo6 428rwhp and just got the monster stage 3 clutch after blowing out my stock clutch on my first trip to the track. I guess i didnt learn my lesson the first time and want to go back to try out this new clutch when the weather gets better. My question to you guys is what my next mods should be for the track? I'm looking for a drag pack of course and have a couple of ideas on getting a better launch (driver mod) plus I did manage to pull some weight out of the car but what else should I Consider? And in what order? Because it would be best to do everything! Rear sway, coil overs or upgrade shocks, motor/trans mounts, trans brace? Built diff with 4.10 gears? Or just save some money and repair what ever I break? lol
Basically, I'm interested in what you guys are running and what kind of results you are getting. I would like for some locals to chime in so if I start asking to many questions you could just show me! I live in the spring area and would appreciate any advice you guys have! Thanks!

That's like asking if there are any politicians in Washington DC LOL. 
Houston (Texas in general) is a hotbed for drag racing.
But I'm sure you're looking specifically for late model Corvette racer types, I'm sure they're down there too.
HRP (now Royal Purple Raceway) is a great track too from what I hear.

Plus I think theres different safety requirements for the 1/4 that I'm not ready to do on my dd.
