Tom the roofer was flyin tonight.
Tom the roofer was flyin tonight. Congrats on running 10.18 at 131. This should be your new best. Your car looked good as hell out of the hole tonight. Way to carry the front wheels.
Terry99ta, good job running 126 tonight. You probably can't wait to hit the nitrous.

Re: Tom the roofer was flyin tonight. Damn Dean, that was supposed to be a secret man. 
The gearing picked me up. Not bad for 2850 + DA at 3420 race weight. Actually it was a 10.193 at 131.34. The gear and tire change picked me up approx. .180
SAM built me one bad *** iron block motor.

BIGBOS, I go 240 and the car weighs 3170. I still have passinger seat and passinger side 5 point harness in. Stereo with all speakers still in. Door bars still in. Still have stock brakes. I have a 12 point C/M cage.
I guess everything else is gone lol Thanks man.
Thanks Dark Angel.

Thanks Pete, I'll be ordering the Strange brakes in a week or two.
Thanks Fireball, I want to come to Cecil this fall but I'm reading it doesn't hook anymore?? Any truth to that?

Thanks Brian, Man your car is AWESOME looking. Love those flames on the VFN SS hood. Good combo
Thanks Joe, Thats what I figure. I'll have the car into the 9's at PRP hopefully this year at 3420 raceweight. Yes Joe, I do have a technical consultant. Best part is he works for FREE. lol Man that remark will cost me a steak dinner lol
Thanks John, I figured .18 improvement. I had a 1.47 @ 10.37 in 2800+ DA 2 weeks ago and a 10.19 in the same DA last night. I have one of those TAGS that gives me the exact DA at the track. Anyway Thanks John. Get that car going man.
