1/4 12.000

This was at my track rental today. it was about 80 out and the da went 1700 to 2300. Not a bad day all in all. Had about 23 passes.
I know she has an 11 coming.

Nice time, that thing is moving! Wow though 23 passes in one day is a lot.......was it a group rental or were you out there solo with the track to yourself? 11's should be a cooler day away for ya.

Yeah I figuared out why my 60' times where so high and not lower. The rear is bottoming out on the rubber stops. Need springs and shock and thicker sway bar back there and it should 60' better and maybe in the deep 11's

I running 11:1 srp forged pistons, Ported and polished intake and heads. Titanium race valves, 1.6 rr, 224/230 cam, FLP longtubes, 2800 stall converter, 3.73 gears, Lt1 edit tuning and that is pretty much it. Car weights about 3800lbs. My next two best runs where:

60' 1.804 1.817
330 5.077 5.096
1/8 7.815 7.816
mph 90.18 91.30
990 10.083 10.050
1/4 12.093 12.038
mph 116.56 117.09


Need a higher stall converter and some better suspension I will be good to go.

How are you getting that much mph with that set-up? Good times though. We have pretty much the same mods but my mph is no where near yours!!!
