What is the 10.71 record? Dave Purly from central Il. went 10.6's 2 years ago in a full weight Stock motor w/spray.
Nice run regardless.

Oh, ok......that is quick. I was told that it was a 10.71. Either way, I am planning on breaking that record or getting close to it this winter. DA was around 3500 on that pass.

What shot was Dave Purley on?????

Nice pass. Next time I am in Vegas I would like to see that car run. My next mod is going to be a cam and I have been hearing alot of good things about the CM products. How do you like your cam from CM?

Thanks

Dan

Yes, that is with stock heads.


AZZ28,
Anytime you are up here send me an e-mail. I am always out and about. I got the cam from Combination Motorsports and I love it. I am getting 17 mph on a 150 shot with it.
