I'll start out by saying Redline was freakin packed last night. Hell I parked on the other end of the track past the time boards. Got there kinda late so it was my own damn fault, last minute wiring and what not. Thanks again Brooks and Tony for letting me borrow the tools.
I only made 2 passes, I had 7 pounds of air in the tires, an old bottle I had laying around , no bottle preasure and still no damn tach! I had a super safe FAT tune as somebody told me its easier to add timming then a piston. ;)

I didnt make any around the block passes with it or nothing, I wired it on the trailer and went to the races and this was the result after the first pass, not to mention the damn hood tie broke again! :mad: I think I can get it down maybe in the .20's on the first stage with some more tunning.

60.......1.45
330.....4.17
1/8......6.44
mph.....108.93

Brian - anytime, You are quite welcome. The car looks great, just remember you gotta crawl before you can walk! I fresh bottle, a degree or two of timing and it will suprise you!

The car hooked hard the first pass but on the second pass It spun a little. It didnt run as fast I guess cause the hood was off and the carb was getting too much air. The car drove great, couldnt ask for a better handeling set up! I hope AJ post up my video of me.

Your run is on Garth's camera! Mine is like 15 yrs. old.

Guess what...

1,2... 93coupett is too fast for you :D J/k Glad to see it's coming around. 6.40s on only the 2nd pass ever in the car is awesome.

Well thats good to know that I am not alone in my street car! I drove my car 60 miles round trip to the GTG last Wednesday. ;)

I know 6.40's is nothing to brag about but for the second pass ever I am not gonna complain, I know it has more left in it on the first stage.

Dont know if I am gonna make it to the track this weekend or not, celebrating my birthday on Friday night so we will see how much money I consume in my belly! That and the hood we be getting painted this week to so I can match!
