thrashed to get the car ready for the small tire race in Ky

ran a shake down pass to make sure it went straight, trans shifted and i had brakes

foot braked it pretty much from an idle, laid it down part throttle shifting @ 6,600 rpm and let out just before the stripe.

5.86 with a 1.32 60 and 114mph

had a big smile on my face from that shake down pass

it still had almost 250 more HP from the dyno sheets from what it made at 6,600 rpm

now time to turn the thing up to lay a number down.

we pulled back up to the staging lanes, i fired it up and put it in gear to pull out and i hear a tining noise i shut it off as quick as i could
we pulled it back to silverfishs pit, only place we had light to see what went wrong.
i started pulling plugs out on the #1 side as Vic started pulling plugs on the other side.
he got to #2 cylinder and the plug was smashed
pulled the valve cover and #2 cylinder had dropped a exhuast valve

i pulled the head to see how bad it was
need a new piston, lucky the cylinder wall doesnt have a scratch in it
head isnt hurt very bad also
should be a easy fix then its time to turn this beast up
