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.

Thanks guys !
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.

Nice vid. Pretty good times with those 60' times. You're combo still has more in her. I ran a 13.20 @110 on street tires with mine last summer with a sucky 2.3 60'. Converter and gears made wheel spin horrendous. I will slap on some drag radials this year after I fix my fuel pump issue.
