The little 76GTS that could, a new best!
Well I finally got the car back out again and got a new best today at Speedworld. I lined up with Bill from AZ's fastest street cars in the final and it was a damn close race. I went 9.17 @ 151.7 mph to his 9.18 ET. He sixty footed the hell out of me as I just couldn't get it to hook but I was able to reel him in on the big end with turbo power. Normally I can leave around 3400 rpm and stick it but today I had to turn it down to 2900 to leave and not spin. The best 60' I had previously was a 1.40 and this one was a 1.49 so if I could have at least matched my previous 60' or a little bit better it's looking like a 9.00 type run, maybe even that elusive 8.99 but I doubt it. This 76GTS is pretty much tapped out and I could really use a bigger turbo but with the car not teching for what it runs I really should just leave it alone and put gas in it and keep driving it but I just want more.
