Looks like the wagon is in front by a foot or so but the first one to the finish line don't always win
I am not causing global warming, I am just trying to hold off a impending Ice Age!

No, I didn't win this round. I was .003 behind at the hit then spun. (the starting line fell apart in the middle of the 1st round. Someone broke a trans line on the starting line and came to rest about the 60' mark and they cleaned it up really good, but I suspect that the fluid got under the rubber, then it pealed it up latter) I lost .026 in 60', then turned him loose in the lights when I couldn't get there. I calculated that I would have ran a 6.771 off of a 6.74 dial. The finnish line margin was .0163 to him (about 2'3") He was backing into me, and I am running 10 mph more than him at this point. The trunk lid isn't open That is my adjustable spoiler, trying to get me somemore down force . The purple Challenger is my very good friend Bobby Love, from Bristol, Va. Funny thing, with this photo, Jim Young captured almost all of my rolling stock in one shot. My wifes blue Intrepid, my red trailer and the back of my dully. Only thing missing is my Neon. This pass was actually the worst pass I made all weekend.

Cool so what do you think the eddie heads gave you??
Hard to tell Barry. I pulled a couple of degrees of ign timeing out after I put the heads on and my 452 iron heads weren't stock, but I know that I picked up .25 sec in 1/4 mile and approx 2.5 mph. Not as much in 1/8 though. I'm not running any 1/4 mile stuff again until labor day so I'm thinking I might just pull all the stops out and try it at London, Ky. That track generally hooks good and the air is real good in the evening. Right now the cam is install at 104* and ignition timing is at 35*. And I got a new Quick Fuel QFX 1050 that I been just iching to try... Let ya'll know in a few weeks.
