Went to the track last night and ran some decent #'s. Not my quickest or fastest, but fun nonetheless:
11.421, 11.477 and 11.478 in the range of 122.7-123.8 mph. I also took some in-car video which is listed on my site:

You'll want to turn up the brightness and contrast in Windows Media Player to see the vids better. Yeah, I know, had some knock when I hit lockup in 3rd gear and stayed in it...Playin' w/ fire...
On my last run, I must have dropped the governor spring and XLR8 (Thanks!) has already got me a line w/ possibly getting one here in town so I can get her back together this weekend.
I also lost my speedo reading so maybe there is more to it than just the gov spring? I have spare everything except the spring from a donor 87 T. Gonna tear into it tomorrow night and find out for sure.
