weren't we going for like 158 last year?
Damn dude. Good luck, 1.37 60ft is no joke esp. in a manual DSM.

Nice work! I say it will be somewhere in high 8s with a successful pass.

What did the car weigh last year? 165 mph is moving in the quarter. Hope you get a clean pass out of it tomorrow.

I have 3 extra 3bolt rear ends, I swap the 4 bolt carrier in and use the 3 bolt ring/pinion.
Wow! Couple that killer 60' with that trap and you will put up some killer numbers! Good luck tomorrow.

I was hoping to see the car run today but just saw it on the trailer. Did something break again?

I replaced the rear end, drove the car around and all was good. I noticed a cracked weld in my intercooler piping. More than likely due to my messed up launch the first two passes. The car bounced very hard. I could not find a tig welder on site, so I shut racing down for the weekend and enjoyed the event. :beer:
The car will be ready for the MAP event, easy fix! Like I said before in three passes I went faster, and cut my best 60 foot ever! It was a very successful weekend even though I didn't put it all together for an epic pass. I know it will happen soon!!!
There was a crazy N/A powered (No nos) '68 pro-outlaw Camaro out there with a Fuel Injected Sonny's 892CI that ran a 6.44 at 210+! Wild car, I looked up the engine and it makes something like 2200HP - N/A. Also there were some crazy twin turbo firebirds and mustangs. I had a great weekend!
