Default 2180 DA= 137.4 mph ;)

2180 DA = 137.4 mph today..surely would been some 9.7 passes if not better but the darn alt belt kept flyin off at the 1/8 making the puter go nutty...

Thanks Brian Jeffries the bumpsteer is fixed !!!!!! may be time to ditch the 4.11's since the car is going straight now....

and thanks jay billingsley I gave that bar a workout lol

1.38 60 ft. footbrake
6.32@108.4
9.95@137.4 some tuning left for sure

Good to hear that you got your Hot Rod going straight.

Now, put a real gear in that bad boy! :p

Nice runs Joe! What weight have you got your car down to? Do you have brakes on the car? I's guessing I'm at 3300lbs without the brakes installed... I think I could get 3200 max with the steel block up front..

was 3189 until i added the wheelie bar so its prolly a tad over 3200 with me in it with a mild steel cage...I have strange brakes all around already.. need to find 200 lbs to rip out for thunder but not a whole lot left unless i swap the cage and start replacing body parts and or glass..
