Made it in the 8's

Still doing some tuning but not bad for a 275 BFG drag radial, .550 lift cam and a 215 TFS head.

I'm running the car in the NMCA street radial class so we are limited to the BFG tire. Went 1.38 60ft in that run. No 300 jet either.

That's moving pretty good for the setup for sure. What's the car weigh?

Nice job -

How does your car do in 1/8 mile? That's a dumb *** question! Every car runs the 1/8 on the way to a 1/4.

Over at Ohio Valley Louisville Ky they have a D/R race this Saturday. I've never looked at the rules but you're not too far away. If you don't want to run D/R there might be another class over there where you might have some fun..

You're welcome
