with all the little changes, i was destened to hit the 5.99 mark in the 1/8th. well, i did. the best of last night was 5.93 @ 115.86 mph. the best before was 6.03 @ 114 mph. i dont think i have enought time in my life to make one change at a time, so this is what i changed. i put the penske d/a coil overs on, moved the ladder bar up 1 hole, new 29 x 11.00 hoosier's with the standard side wall (i had the stiff side wall before), put the 1" spacer under the carb and jetted the main up from 86 to 90. all said and done i'm please with the over all performance. so now i can finally say, "i'm done spending money" http://www.bowtie0069.fotki.com/2011-irwindale-pix-1/10-20-11-irwindale-pix/img-7581.html

Congrats on the new best. I love them. You definitely have some money in that engine, but good parts too.
What was the weather (temp, barometer)? What does the car weigh? What do you think it will run in the 1/4 mile? (9.4-9.5 ?)

the air was good. , 1500 1600. now the big question from all you guys, is what does the car weigh? some one here has to have something similar. the hood, fenders, deck are glass. the windows are original,.083 moly cage with foward bars, pair kirkey seats with carpet and padding on floor, aluminum divider between trunk and rear area,alum door pannels, no rear seat, has stock dash, one battery at 42 lbs and the big block based from alum. 5 gal rci plastic tank.

Congrats on a great run. But honestly I feel like an 1/8 mile is like premature withdrawal.
i'd tend to agree, this 1/8th track (irwindale or toyota speedway) is like 10 minutes from the house and is conveinent as all heck. it passifies my racing needs till i take the duster out to fontana 1/4 mile. the local 1/8th track does not do prep work to warrent much faster cars so i wont run the duster there. they dont even have anything to drag rubber. any how i'll be takeing the duster out to the psca in a couple of weeks. it's best is 8.42 @ 162 mph on the motor. the car is only certed to 8.50 so i'm not looking to go any faster.
