Default took my swapped cutlass to the track

Took my 84 cutlass to a local 1/8th mile track today ran a new best:
8.60 1/8th
2.17 60ft
(the track doesn't give mph)

Mods include:
carbed 4.8
tsp220r cam
pacesetter longtubes
th350 with 3600 stall
3.73 gears
3400lbs with driver

Also note this is on regular 255/60/15 street tires as I drive the car almost daily. Not drag radials. With drag radials or slicks I hope to improve on the 60ft times. I am also planning more weight reduction.

What kind of track doesn't give MPH? That would be annoying IMO.

Well before this year they didn't even give 60ft times or time slips, they just called the times out on a loudspeaker. It is a really old track. So 60ft times, reaction times, and et's are a big improvement.

yeah I guess you're right. MPG, IMO, is a better performance indication than ET, though so it would be annoying for me personally.

Get that 60ft down and you're knocking on 12's! Not bad for a car the way it sits as a daily.
