I got asked to post this up on behalf of Lee Dalton 'Dalts' as he's know on the forums.

He managed to run a new pb of 10.85@126mph with a 1.63 60ft time.

his previous best was around the 11.5@126mph from memory.

lees ute is making around the 390rwkw mark ( not exactly sure ) with a built bottom end, standard turbo, nizpro stage 2 kit, exhaust and a 2spd powerglide. he was running MT's and 98 Oct fuel, FULL WEIGHT.

he managed to get in 4 runs in. weather was 15 degrees with 80% humidity.

1st run - 11.3@125mph 1.73 60ft

2nd run - 11.5@125mph 2.1 60ft

3rd run - stuffed it up with wheelspin he said, did a 20 something.

4th run - 10.85@126mph 1.63 60ft

Lee said that now he that he knows what to do burnout wise and launch wise he said he could do a little bit better than a 10.8. He said he will post up a timeslip when he gets a chance as he's busy with work atm.

congratulations Lee, its only taken you just over a year to do it!!!!!!! :+1:

its still gets driven daily. he put a 2spd in for reliabilty as hes smashed 5 4spd's already and is over forking out for rebuilds every 6 months.

haha cool. there comes a point I guess when you just get sick of bits breaking, and you go for reliability!

thanks guys,thanks to elite for the great tune!yeah the glide is more for reliability than performance,but I much prefer it to the 4speed for driveability aswell,I drive around in top gear all the time,it takes off from the lights normally,so its bit like a 1speed its great!!!

cheers lee
