Default Super Chevy Va. ,3 rounds and backed up 9.36 record ;)

the 60 ft's are there what can I say ..went 3 rounds today ..I thought air was gonna be better but the cold front I was hoping for held off Was slightly better however 1300-1450 DA all day ....Great time even though I was the only 4th gen pontiac in the modified field

runs as follows

9.33 dial
.029
1.266 60 ft
5.93@114.52
9.365@142.76 backed up record and I got video, be up next day or so


9.33 dial
.055
1.268
5.949@114.49
9.376@143.14

9.33 dia
-.004 red
1.272 spun left crooked oh well went red anyway
5.958@114.27
9.391@142.28

60 ft's are unreal now and consistant saturday I ran 9.41,9.41,9.43 all 1.2 60's as well even though DA was 2200'

now I just need to sit back for that crisp cool day,,,

were thos er/t's on a sportsman tree or pro tree, either way AWESOME lights!

are you going to run it again before thunder???

i just have a few things on my list to do and then i am set to go! minor change in fuel jets based on last outing, fill bottles, get fuel , check valve lash and that is about it, oh and a couple of minor tweaks hopefully to run a little quicker.

I know others have said it, but those 60 fts off the footbrake are pretty frickin' incredible. Will definitely be interesting to see what the lil' LT1 will do in some good air. Another congrats...
