My previous best from last week was a 7.7@89mph, I dropped almost 2 tenths of a second & gained almost 2 mph, YEAH BOY

I ran with 2 gallons of gas, Dropped the Passenger seat 30lbs, Dropped NOS Bottle15lbs, Sub Hideaway Box 22lbs I fabbed a HUGE RAM AIR SCOOP but not completely functional, just have the scoop there, still need to run the hose from the scoop to under the air box, But I think it helped, I can cover it with the Bird symbol when I don't want it, So you never knows it there until you pull it off. PRETTY NEAT ACTUALLY, I got the scoop from Home Depot$13.00 bucks for Ram Air & to be honest. I think it's one the best Ram Air kits I have ever had. You have to see it in person to appreciate it.

I ran on 315/17/35 BFG Drag Radials@ 12psi right & 13psi left. My best 60 foot was a 1.68 something.

I can't believe this car, I am very happy with it!

Thanks, everyone for all the tips. They paid off!

Congrats on the new best!

Cedar Creek, hmm...Glad to hear that track is still up and running. Haven't even thought of that track in a long time. Hope the track conditions have improved over what it used to be.

Thanks, No I think Cedar Creek is still the same as it used to be. Still has the bump right after the 1/8 mile mark. But I live 18mins from there exactly & can't pass tech for Ennis. I don't want to drive a hour to Redline & a hour or more to Kennadale. So the Creek is my spot. But they are building a track right off 175 going towards Kaufman. Should be a 1/8 mile track & be open Next summer & that will be my new Drag Strip & about 5mins closer to me too.

So what does a 7.50 @91 come out to in the 1/4 mile?

7.50 X 1.57 = 11.77 in the 1/4 MPH will be around 114

Lol at the "bump" it just wouldn't be Cedar Creak without that bump!

All the low 6sec cars & high 5sec cars hate that bump. But they still come out & race.

Thanks for the 1/4 mile time caculation.

It's 2 tenths of a second not 2 sec.

Oh and congrats on the new best.
