Nice job
I think maybe I could have broke the 7 second range last week if it weren't for the head wind there.

Very good ! We Test and Tuned to a new best at Redline Raceway in N. Texas. 69 4 speed Dart with cast crank 340. Old best 8.19. 3 runs last weekend 8.44, 8.12, 8.04. Put the adj Konis back on the front and helped. I was bench racing with a few of you last New Years about the traction issues. Thanks.

Vern, you may have posted, but if you did I missed it, did you go with a Trans Brake, know you were thinking about it?
