Default Finally made it in the 10's

60' 1.612
330 4.576
1/8 7.034
mph 99.98
1000 9.156
1/4 10.97
mph 124.77


this was on worn out 17" BFG drag radials and with my heavy *** 18" front wheels , full weight minus the spare. Basically just as I drive it on the street.


I think I have more in the tune, and may be adding meth very very soon and nitrous not too far after that!

Can't wait to add a bigger blower too!

Thanks man, I barely squeeked in there, lol. I wasn't going home without a 10 sec slip.

Was funny people were cheering when I finally did it. Every pass i made I was going faster.

went from 11.07 to 11.04 to 10.97. thanks to my friend Greg who had EFI live.

now i went to get deeper in the 10's! My goal is to go 10.0's.

Next you'll want 9's Congrats!!! Get some new rear tires; skinnys for the track and you'll loose a couple more tenths.

Again congrats on a job well done.

yup , I have to a torque arm and maybe a new rear sway bar cause it dips hard in the right rear. i am dying to run with some skinnys in the front and have a nice 15 in radial in teh back.


I was warned i gotta add at least a 4 pt roll bar now though, lol.
thanks guys.


the guys from alkycontrol were there and pretty much have me sold on doing a meth kit now.

guess i'll do that first before adding the nitrous.

and yes I'd love to touch 9's before the years end. car felt good going down the track last night.
