Default New best ET and MPH tonight!

Made the trip to Thompson Raceway Park tonight and it was a pretty good outing. My slowest time was a 12.9 and I hit a new best ET and MPH with a 12.53@110 on the last run of the night. 60 was only a 1.80 which is almost a full 10th off my best 60. I didn't think I was going to hook as well as I did so I was easy on it for the first 30 feet which I don't think I needed to be. I think if I can get my 60 down to about a 1.6 and get some good October air, the only thing standing between me and 11's this year will be skinnies, drag lites and a cutout.

Thanks! Still have several years worth of work and money to go on the car to get it where I want it.

Most of the bolt ons and a mismatched cam (306) on stock heads, stock manifold, stock bottom end and HEAVY wheels. DA is never good at Thompson and track prep is only good on the weekends.

Thanks!

Can't wait to get my first run in some cool air. Then an AI top end and a forged 383 bottem end for it! See if I can get 10's with that setup and then just spray it to the 9's. I'll probably be happy at that point...

Good run. I'm hoping to make it back over, just really need some valve springs first.

We are going over early Saturday morning. You should try to make it.

What's wrong withy our valve springs??? Your car isn't very old or very heavily modded.
