RT .033

1/8 7.113
mph 95.23
1000' 9.352

Joe, Thanks for all the great advice over the last year or so, you've been a great help ! Looking forward to the new set-up this summer !


Foff667,

Congratulations for the record. I know it has to be a great feeling. Explained weight mods to the car and other bolton mods please. Again, great run.

Gator, I had the Hoosier Drags on it today. Not positive on the race weight yet, I'm thinking in the 3150-75 range. Got a friend with some 4-point digital scales that should be back from Florida anyday now. Soon as he gets back I'll scale it and get a true weight. Last time I scaled last fall I was 3228# but I did some more weight reduction over the winter. Also added the LSX 78mm intake last week, and used my S2 ported stock TB.

Kent1,
The car is basically a full bolt-on car, everything underneath the car but the driveshaft has been changed or modified. Lotsa chrome-moly through out the car. Has carpet,console and panels and one seat, and still has the stock firehawk hood and dual dual cat-back with cut-out. It's not a tin can.

Yea, after it finally loosened up, that verter has been a 1.49 last fall. But to be honest I think the Hoosier 26x10 drags are slowing me down. I came close to putting the Mickeys back on today but figured I would give the Hoosiers a few more shots. The Mickey ET Streets actually 60' better on my car.
