Talking First Time out 12.8

Just got back from track. First time every to race on track. 1st run 12.80/110, 2nd 12.88/109.8, 3rd 13.13/109.8. Not bad for a full size 86 Monte SS dailey driver. Street tires hurt me. BFG Radials 15". Got a real bad lag btwn 2 & 3 shifts. And Stock Convertor.
Any how wheeeeeee !!!!!! Had a blast.


I looked at my logs for the 3 runs and was getting knock and pulled alot of timing, Noticed when I was at line my LFT's were on the plus side, grrrrr. On return road they went neg like they should have been. Also have very bad lag in shifts btwn 2nd and 3rd. Wish I knew more about tuning, I just never got around to learning it. lol

I'm sure you'll have that thing in the 11s in no time with some more tuning and a converter. Cool car. Any pics?

Pretty sure it's from a mid 90's pickup, I forget which years.
