New best, 9.68 @ 139.8

Well back to track today after having rest of cage welded in, kinda happy after adding 30-40 lb to the car…
First pass:
broke up really bad…
1.54 60 ft
10.5 @ 135 … seemed like it loaded up rich again, but last carb move I had leaned secondaries more… so reversed the move from 105 - 108 rear jets…

Second pass…
1.345 60 ft almost on bumper again…
6.16 @ 111.5 1/8 mile
9.68 @ 139.8

Third pass…
1.41 60 ft - spun pretty hard…
6.19 @ 111.3
9.75 @ 139.7

fourth pass…
1.340 60ft
6.15 @ 111.5
9.80 @ 127 - nailed brakes at end twice because I was past him pretty early - did not realize I had red lit… wish I would have stayed in it to maybe get a new best again.

Not bad, would like to find out what car weighs - used to weigh 3440 with 350 and iron heads…
Anyone know difference between iron headed small block and alum headed BBC?? also added suspension parts and cage addition… I am guessing about 3500 with me…

WOW

congrats…

not bad. I mean, I ran a 9.67, but your 9.68 is still quite respectable.

wow that is awesome
congrats

Props to 1st try engineering (Jeff) for the 10 pt addition!
nice work!

Congrats. You need to get some pics of the launch!

dude that’s awesome. do you have video??

congrats…

What are the specs of your engine combo? trans & Trans break? Convertor? tire and gear.

I wanna see a video of the second pass.

almost on the bumper? Thats gotta be a fun ride!!

awesome runs! Your car sounds soooo mean! I love it

wow man congrats on the passes. sounds like shitloads of fun

sweet

insane. congrats

Thanks guys for the compliments!! Yeah deffinetly a fun ride, went back saturday - think the sidewalls are shot on my hoosiers!! spun every pass, 60 fts ranging from 1.39-1.54 best et being 9.75, couple of them would have been in the 9.6x again with a good 60… Not sure if its my tires or the complete lack of prep as usual… But last year it was hooking pretty consistant…

468: 496,13:1,TH350,TCI 5000,RENECK VALVEBODY,28X10 HOOSIERS,4.11 IN A FORD 9", APPROX 3450 RACEWEIGHT. Thanks for compliment;)

what rpm do you cross the 1320 at? I’m worried that when I get my vette done, that I’ll be out of gear when on the giggle gas…

I think around 7300-7400

Sounds like you are dialed in nice. Thanks for the info man.

Congrats!!!
