Nice times, looks like it should run 10.40's-50's but I don't think youll cross with 5.14's in the 1/4?

tireburnin 11-19-2007 04:45 PM

That is getting the job done! Congrats.

Any plans for it for the future?

Ya, the 5.14's are definitely not for the 1/4, but since all we really do around home is 1/8 mile I decided to maximize for what I was doing. I could get by with 4.56's for the 1/4 if the need arose.

Future plans would consist of a diet to get the car down to maybe a 3000lb raceweight, definitely a set of wheelie bars, possiblly switching to a powerglide tranny, and last but not least, more power, probably in the form of a aftermarket block around 434 ci, with sheetmetal intake, DFI and all the other goodies.

Great job maximizing the car for the 1/8. That's an excellant et for the mph.

Wow, what a weekend! Not only did I get a new best everything, but I was on track to win the race had the rain stayed away. I had a .003 light in my last rd and ran a 6.753 off a 6.75 dial. New times in the sig.

1.37 on motor is leaving HARD! That is impressive. Congrats

Awesome 1/8th mile times, what RPM do you cross the 1/8th?

rje 12-03-2007 09:43 PM

I cross at around 6600 rpms in good air like that. I hope to have a video of a pass soon.

with those 60' times i hope you have a good chriopractor. The reason i choose to run 2.2 sixty foots is to keep my medical expenses to a minumum...................jk :)
