You do not need to defend your self Frank.
That is a awesome achievement regardless of what ecu you use or ow much it weighs.
Joe always got the the same weight comments when he went 10`s with a 14b and 9`s with a 16g.
Just remember if no one is talking about you then you arent doing anything worth talking about.

It doesnt matter If this was a 5000lb truck or a go cart, 8 seconds is faster than 99% of TR members will ever do in thier own car, bow down.

Welcome to the board.
I don't think anyone was trying to say it's easy especially me.
The weight, slicks and automatic play a much more important factor in what you are doing then the dsmlink.
I think people were trying to make a note of those factors to shut the dsmlink nutswinger up since in the realm of raw power you aren't really doing anything with the dsmlink that hasn't already been done. No offense.
Nice car btw what converter are you using? Restalled stock 11"? What's it flash to and stall at?
You're car is very fast and no one is taking that away from you. You aren't doing anything any real racer wouldn't do and that's picking the lightest chassis and the best drivetrain setup to do what the vehicle is designed to do. Kudo's.

He took a break from it for a little while. He has gotten back to work on it here recently.
He is making several changes to the car. Mostly chassis wise.
I will point this post to him at work tomorrow and let him comment more.
Keep up the great work on the car.
By the way are you guys planning to go to the Shoot Out this year.

Don't worry Frank, I always have to listen to people tell me the same shit. Anyone can lighten a car up and make it go fast.... but no one else has gone 10s on a 14b or 9s on a 16g.
I have been working on my car again recently as Tom said. I expect to make a lot of progress over the next couple of months. I don't know if I'll have the car on the track this summer, but there will certainly be progress.

you ian, where just talking shit about his tin can until he made a post, but now you want to put your tail between your legs and try to be buddy buddy with him..... what a sad two face little man you are. i bet if he never posted you would still try to make some kind of negative comments on his car. grow up! your not in high school anymore.btw everyone this was to show a special friend that i don't need to make the switch to aem to hit my goals and this car/team is my proof.
Thanks Frank for filling in the blanks and good luck.
