If you make it out to VA I'm assuming you'll be in the DC area? If so, let me know. We meet every other Saturday for coffee and lunch in out here and would be glad to have you.

Here's an onboard of a 12.91 run to give you an idea of the wheel hop.

Did I notice correctly, was it hopping on the shifts!? Ford has always been shy of putting enough tire on those cars. Maybe you can order the Boss rims when they come out, or use whatever tire they are using or something? 255's on that car is just stupid and I don't know why Ford insists on this kind of stuff. My WS6 wouldn't even sqeak a tire on shifts. It would lay waste to mustangs with similar power/weight simply because on the 1-2 shift they lost a car-length that they never came back from. You need good tires for the street, too!
