Test and tune Saturday, box no box race on Sunday. He cranked out some 10.50 last year in his 3200 pound 360 NA engine before we slowed it down by switching from a 904 tranny with a 5200 stall to a 727 with a 4000 stall after he hurt his convertor. sticking with the 727 but hopefully the convertor we switched to will give him some more stall. He also added a NOS plate system for what he refers to as "top end games". Imagine that MY kid playing with nos. He also added an alternator and a few other goodies. New slicks will be going on for me soon as I picked up a new set last week. A better flowing set of heads, different intake, a bigger carb and maybe even a bigger cam early in the season for me. Best run last year for me was a NA 10.14 using 93 octain gas in my edelbrock headed 408. Looking forward to stepping up this year as I would like to see how fast it can go before I switch it over to a big block. Have a GREAT season guys, have fun, and be safe. My toy 1970 Duster Edelbrock headed 408 5.984@112.52 422 Indy headed small block 5.982@112.56 mph 9.42@138.27 Livin and lovin life one day at a time

Year 39 of racing for me and I still really look forward to it. Harder at times but I still love it. I love the simplicity of this car and since I put the stock doors on it sure makes it nice on those 90 degree days. Our local track was in question this year as the Tedesko's daughter is racing the NHRA circuit now. She took second in Vegas in both super gas and super comp. 1970 Duster Edelbrock headed 408 5.984@112.52 422 Indy headed small block 5.982@112.56 mph 9.42@138.27 Livin and lovin life one day at a time
