very nice runs. whoever asked about the DA, that is pretty good for this time of the year but in january and febuary the DA is commonly in the -1000- -1500 range, I've seen -2500 before.

Coach
me and a buddy were talking about you today.
his stang is 2560-2600 raceweight. 6.0 heads/cam
he runs 6.43 at 105 but with a 1.43 60ft.
powerglide 6200 stall 5.13's.

thats nuts for a lil 347 to hit the tires that hard.
3 speed has to be helping some too.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Coach cut a sub 1.30 before it's all said and done this year !

The best my car ever did was a 1.31, and it only did that once, and I was only 3045lbs. Coach's car is 100lbs or so heavier than mine, but he is making about 50-60 more HP than I was with my hyd/11.1/93 pump gas motor.

He's got a hoss no doubt, and I think once he get's it dialed in 9's will be a given.

Congrats on the new best Coach. Maybe you'll get a front of cold air before we start hitting the 2500-3000 DA of summer time to crack off that 9 second lap. Bummer about the issue, but glad you diagnosed it and will be back to winning soon!
