I just went to the swift racing web page, and that is definately the car...I ended up eliminating him in the first or second round of the brackets...I think something went wrong on his side because, his dial in was 13.00, mine was 13.50, he ended up running a 13.711@102.36, and i ended up running a 13.569@105.18...That car is beautiful and fast...Just wondering, does anyone know how much boost he runs, and what other mods besides the sc he has done to the car? Thanks

Actually I think that day Mo was having problems with his tranny and ecu. He was just in the process of getting the car put together that day but could not dial it in correctly hence the higher ET's.

Yes,
Actually that was our car. It was the first time we went to the tracks and we wer having some serious issues with the tranny, it was not shifting from 2-3 and from 3-4 properly with some huge delays. Also we were only running about 8 PSI boost that day. It seemed like nothing was going our way that day with everything going out of whack.

The next event was at MIR and we got the tranny working better but still a delayed shift from 2-3 and we ran a best time of 12.4 @ 113 with only about 14PSI boost.

The last event last year was at Maple Grove running 17PSI boost and tranny STILL giving problems we ran a best of 12.03@118

But this year we are going to be debuting our line of Superchargers at the July 21st and 22nd NIRA event at MIR ( www.mirdrag.com ) tranny almost completely fixed and push close to.... well lets say much more power. Hopefully everything holds without breaking

Remember guys that the July 21st and 22nd is our East Coast Gathering with so far over 100 Lexi showing and officials from local dealers, maybe even corporate Lexus.

Hay that might be a good excuse to go on vacation. I'm thinking about a road trip but MD might be to far from MS.
