I decided to try really hard for consistency and went with an easy tune, especially with the high temps and high humdity.
These where qualifying runs:
12.976@106.29 with a r/t -.143
13.023@106.61 with a r/t .010

Track was somewhat slick, my 60's were in the 1.8-1.9's instead of the normal 1.7'

6/7/07     Modified a stock 1G BOV per the "Dodge Mod" when the Turbo RFL valve start leaking under pressure.

Good first outing, with a new best time.  Was knocking in 4 gear with 110 mixed in the tank, needs some more tuning.  Stutterbox definitely helps with RT.

Due to an accident that took out the guard rail at the 1/4 mile, they only allowed runs to the 1/8.  Good day overall, lots on runs and lot of fun.  Too bad the shortened track didn't allow me to get probably my new personal best!

Day was hot, so times where down.  Car was constantly in fuel cut going down the track, sometimes hitting fuel cut 3-4 times (on tape).  I kept lean out base settings on MAFT, it helped, but bigger injectors are needed so MAFT can get past the FC.  Injectors will also getting the Duty Cycles below 100%.

6/24/06  GM Maf and Translator installed...let the tuning begin!!!

Engine was running extremely rich with 2G regulator and 190 fuel pump (14.4 times).  Swapped the stock FPR back and speeds picked up.  Had problem keeping boost up and engine started picking up knock counts in 3-4 gear.  Needed more 110 in tank but gas sales was stopped.  Engine is still running rich.  Launches are running consistent 1.85-1.87 60 foot and R/T are down to .2-.3's with a .090!

Clutch was slipping through 2-3-4 gear shifts.  Next run clutch went completly even with boost turned down to 14.
Learning to launch without bogging was a problem, last run launched at 4000-5000 and cut a 2.171 60 foot.  Getting better.
