Giving the change from 12.80's at Topgun, I am thinking that 12.0's are possible at Sacramento. Has anyone run 12.0's at sea level in a SB car with 3.23's? No juice or turbo please! My car weighs 3300 with me in it. 7661101-ted.JPG (66 downloads)

Are you even getting into 3rd/ last time I raced w/ 3.23's it was in a 383 Charger and I went thru the traps in 2nd. [IMG]http://i66.tinypic.com/pui5j.jpg[/IMG] Coming soon!!!!

No engine mods necessary. 3 tenths is about what I lost going to vegas from sea level. You might even crack the 11's -Dustin 67 Dart, 9 second, 392" G3 Hemi 68 Barracuda 340 F/SA

I'm so broke that I can't even pay attention. No mods any more. I think I am going to have a long wait to sell it. It's one that you have to really like to buy. 7662349-ted.JPG (51 downloads)

So gears do not make a big of a difference as I thought they did, in my case anyway.

The Duster I'm building now is getting a 500" pump gas big block, 9.5" street converter, 3.55 gears, and a 26 or 27 inch tall tire. I want to be able to drive the thing to the track and run 10's. 1970 Challenger, all aluminum 528 Hemi, HDK suspension, Tremec 5 speed manual

But to use some science, we need the DA when you ran, or tell us the day and time you ran (I don't know what MATS is) as the DA is available online, and we can simply tell you the weather conditions needed at Sacramento to run a 11.99.

cudadoug master C Joined: Aug 2003 Posts: 3,245 Between a rock & a hard place	Once in my bracket racing past I ran all three tracks on almost consecutive weekends: Sac 10.41 Fallon 10.98 Vegas 10.70 Sonoma one month earlier it went 10.38 FWIW... I recall a 69 Bee in the ads with a 496, baby cam, stock 340 converter and 3.23's that claimed 11.90's. Seems very do-able with your 60' numbers. Regardless...how fun. Road trip to Vegas, low 12's and road trip home!
