Default New personal best: Bolt on 6.0, 7.16@95.8

My previous best was a 7.18@95.1 on a 1.54 60' back in April while it was still cool out, DA was 1243ft.

Well... I Went to a local 1/8th mile track yesterday for a little arm drop/ index race they were having, and ended up getting a new best during testing:



DA was 1613 on the new PB. temps were in the high 70's all day during testing I also went a 7.17@95.5 right before. The rest of the day I had to peddle it on the big end to keep from breaking out of the 7.50 index, so the ET's were all over the place, but out of 8 passes, the 60's were all 1.55/1.54 and 330's were 4.61/4.60, so I would assume the rest of the passes would be in the high-teens with mid 95mph speeds.

80k mile, all stock parts 6.0, 275 m/t radials, 3450 raceweight.

Congrats. Was that at KVD? I had to work so I didn t get to go. My best there is 7.98 with a 1.74 with my stock ls1 with stall. Just bought some Et streets recently that I can 't wait to try out.

Yes sir. I was shocked KVD actually hooked as well as it did Saturday.i had spectators telling me I hung the tires 6-8" in the air, and carried it for a few feet down the track.

I'm headed to Bluegrass raceway Sunday to see how deep in the 11's I can get it. I'm hoping for an 11.40 off the trailer, and hopefully knock it down to a 11.3x before the day is over. Really hoping I can get my trap speed to 120mph

Seems their track prep improved on Fridays also. Or just my et streets were hooking. I pulled a 7.95 last Friday. Can't wait to get my headers on.
