Yup. Put my buddies slicks on the car. First pass went 11.6 @ 124 with a 1.8 60'. Trans wouldn't shift.

Second 11.3 @ 125

Third 11.2 @ 126

Final and best 11.1 @ 127.

1.7420 60'
4.7742 330'
7.2623 1/8 ET
99.08 1/8 MPH
9.21 1000' ET
115.87 1000' MPH
11.1 -----1/4 ET
127 -----1/4 MPH

Only a 1.74 60'. They didn't prep the track one time and I got there when it opened. Best 60' was a 1.67 but it got away a little bit and let out on the big end. After this pass they made me go to the tower to get my slip and said don't come back without a full cage and fire suit. A few more runs and it would of got a 10.9x. I was spinning the slicks off the line for probably 10-12 feet and then it got out.

I'm happy with it so far. It's backhalfing real good for a automatic car. No nitrous numbers yet. Later

Awesome numbers. Where or how did you build the 404. How does it do on mpg against the 346. And do you still have the 4l60e? how is that tranny liking all those cubic inches?

Livernois did the shortblock, I built it from there. MPG, I'm not sure. When it was a 346 it probably got 13-15mpg. Now I probably get 7-8 mpg at best. IDK building a car to go fast with good MPG isn't happening with these cars unless its a turbo car. The tranny is a performabuilt level 2. I'm not going to bad mouth a sponsor but lets just say its my second one and I will be getting rid of it as fast as possible this winter. Going TH400. Thanks!

Dont know what the race weight is, no suspension mods, but that has 10's if you work on both of those.

Real nice Chad. I get the boot at Milan too after one pass normally.
Your ET is going to be solid on the sauce. Congrats.
