Ran tonight at Beech Bend.

60' 1.70
330 4.95
1/8 7.69
mph 89.64
1000 10.07
1/4 12.09
mph 112.22

Im trying to get that 11 second slip with stock heads before I throw my 355 in there. I don't know if I'll make it, but I should with my next setup

 

Work on that 60 and you're there man!

 

damn man.. that's crazy close to my old cam only setup:

12.06 @ 112.81

nice job, i couldn't break 11's before I broke the car, so do it for me!

 

Did you take the fron sway bar off? Put some drag shocks up in the front and I bet you'll get that 60' down. a 1.65 and you'll hit 11's. Nice times!

 

wow.. im hoping to get similar times out of mine next week- but to ensure i make it into the deep 11's i plan on spraying 150 shot as well

nice numbers though-

 

what is your raceweight?

You can take ~100#'s off the car in less than 45min and put it back when you are done raceing

spare tire
Jack
Passenger seat
Rear Seat
Plastic trim panels from rear of car

Bingo you have your 11 sec slip

 

Congrats matt. The car has the typicall weight reduction done to it. Also has a lot of suspension work done. Matt, ready to yank that front bumper support off??

 

nice times

 

Maybe

 

Thge car weighs 3640 with me in it, maybe a little more since I've gained some weight (wifes pregnant, Don't ask why I'm gaining)

 

The TH350 hurts my 60' some with the higher first gear, she hooks pretty good, gets a tire up a little

 

I know the feeling

 

That should be your plan of attack right there.

Mine was 3680 when I started raceing the car....I now have it down to ~3430

 

Make sure that engine is COOL before running. I have a fan switch and electric wp that I run until the engine is 160 degrees. Also, I have found that icing the intake helps some. Get some buddies together to help push your car up through the staging lanes until the last possible second. I also put my battery on a slow charge the day before. Get rid of all of your washer fluid, and pump those front tires up to 50 lbs. Did you remove your front sway-bar? There are a few things that may help other than the usual stuff.

 

What tires are you running in the back?
