New best with new Joe O cam!

I was finally able to get to the track after installing the new cam and the weather was warm. Not hot, but 71 degs is not what I expected for December. Anyway the car went a best of 7.10@ 95 in the 1/8 with a 1.47 60ft, and since I'm running so much gear I coasted the last 300 feet and still ran a 11.35@ a blistering 104mph. Once I can fine tune things like shift pts and get some good cool air 6.90's should be a piece of cake, not bad for a 355 that weighs in at 3400 lbs. Thanks a ton Joe, as always you da man.

Smoking Man, I gotta stop Joe Nice job, are you going to reduce gear or run a taller tire? It's kinda funny how the quickest H&C, cam only, and stroked LT are all running a Joe o cam

Re: New best with new Joe O cam!

Thanks guys! We all are doing well with the small inch LT's motors thanks to joe and a few others.

Frank, I've been watching you for years and for no more than you have done to your car it's flying, congrads.

Quickshot, I haven't made my mind up as of yet as what I'm going to do about the gear. I do alot of bracket racing on the 1/8 and very seldom do I get chance to get to a 1/4 track. I could switch to a 4.56 and be dead on in the 1/4 though.
