Figured I would share this here. It's a run at Cecil County Dragway this fall. Car went 9.07 @ 149.85 with a 1.28 60' on this run.

HOLY ****!!!!

That was freaking awesome. I only wish I could see that much sky through a windshield one day. Best I ever did was about an inch off the ground in a 6 speed street car going 11.67. Great job, and thanks for the vid.

Nice run man, throw the car in neutral when you finish the run. Thats really hard on rod bolts and everything else.

If its a reverse pattern valve body with engine braking then he doesn't need to do that. Non engine braking may be ok though I would still be wary of doing that.

LOL, this made me laugh. In a reverse pattern valve body, you have to go from 3-2-1 to get to N. Also, as soon as you let go of the throttle, the converter begins to slip so contrary to what you think you know, it's not hard at all on a properly built motor. Now go run some more 12's

Didn't even pay attention to the shift pattern, haha my bad. Just sounded like it was engine braking pretty hard when you let off, from the shift pattern it looks like there is nothing you can do about it. Not sure what running 12's has anything to do with this though? Our track closed in september and now its time to get out the sleds.

yes, you dont want to toss a RMVB trans back to neutral.... Not to mention the fact that if you did the internals would be spinning something like 2.5 time the rpm of the motor. No good. BUT, super killer run man! Def. getting it done!
