New best…Finally a 100mph 1/8 mile!
I hit the track yesterday to catch some of this good air we have been having and ran a new best, and most importantly I accomplished my goal of trapping 100mph in the 1/8. The 1/8 and ¼ mile numbers are new bests.
Although the numbers are good I was really expecting better given the low DA. My 60ft was disappointing as well. I spun on all of the passes.
I really think the car has a 10.6x with a better 60ft.
Race weight was around 3370lbs and the DA was -700ft. I was running 26x9 Hoosier slicks.
60 – 1.51
330 – 4.41
1/8 – 6.85
MPH – 100.95
1000 – 8.96
¼ - 10.74
MPH – 125.90
I backed up this pass with the following passes:
60 – 1.53
330 – 4.41
1/8 – 6.85
MPH – 100.72
1000 – 8.96
¼ - 10.74
MPH –???.??
60 – 1.54
330 – 4.41
1/8 – 6.86
MPH – 102.43
1000 – 8.97
¼ - 10.76
MPH – 125.96

Thanks guys.
I have the usual weight reduction mods. On these passes I had the stock seats out with only a driver’s race seat so I was about 50lbs lighter than my usual race weight. Typically I do not race the car like this. Usually I just bolt on the drag tires and drive to the track.
All passes were N/A on the stock 1998 short block.
