Headed to a shootout in Belle Rose, LA this weekend

Been waiting for this for quite some time, and it finally draws near. I did alittle testing with it at the local track the other night.......found out a few things.
1. This new converter is CRAZY. I only made motor passes, but the new converter flashed 5300rpms before it left.
2. A completely nonprepped track + a converter flashing 5300 equals worst 60ft time ever. Smoking the tires,fanning,spinning, and finally hooking gave me an alltime worst 2.2 60ft time off of my normal 1.7?. Truck ran 13.17, so I figure I didn't lose too much on the big end with the new converter as long as I get my 60ft back at a well prepped track.
3. I'm now jetted and tuned for the 200 shot(up from the 100 shot) and its now on a button. No more waiting for the window switch to kick in and shut off.

So, anyway, we're going for the midnight madness Saturday night(10:00-1:00) and the Thunder Shootout is Sunday morning. I'm looking to go pretty deep in the 11s and should have no problem with it(as long as traction is somewhat available).

Also, a shift noid went out in this new tranny, so the guy in LA that built it has a fresh one waiting on me to get there and get it in. Nothing like beating on a BRAND NEW tranny.
