Default first time at the track with the blower on

i only made one pass since my car broke at the line and wouldnt start back up. i fixed that problem. then i re staged did a tiny burn out from first to second gear. dropped a .1 light first time at the track in 6 months managed a 2.0 60' and ended up with a 12.52 at 113 et. i think thats pretty good since i have bald dr's on the car i need subframes. i have a lazy second gear and it broke loose when it shifted to second. i fear that traction will be a serious issue once i get my tranny rebuilt and thats on tuesday im having a 2800 or 3500 stall put in as well. once i get some stickies and some suspension mods 11's all day long.

I wish I was at sea level! my best run with the blower is 12.6 @ 113 with a 1.975 60' plus it was 80 degrees and humid.

I'm looking forward to running it this spring

What kind of problem did you have on your first attempt, when the car wouldnt start up?

blew off the discharge tube from the intercooler to the intake. the guy that welded on my blow off valve forgot to tighten up the hose clamp.
