I have not really done anything to the car and it ran the same as my best 3 passes in a row. Yep 10.76 three times in a row as it was consistent today for sure. Thats running 92 pump thru the full exh driving the 90 mile round trip. I won the first round against a sweet Roadrunner with a 10.76 on my 10.75 dail and then had to run my brother in his 9 second Cuda the second round. I ran 10.76 again on my 10.75 dail as he ran 9.32 on his 9.29 dail but he killed me on the light as I went .078 to his .012. I will admit I am a little rusty on the tree but I had a ton of fun and nothing broke and I drove it home. So all in all was a good day. I think my niece took a video of my brother and me racing but I have to wait for her to send it to me. Ron Last edited by 383man; 10/20/13 10:49 PM.

I wanted to jet up but the jetting is nice where it is for street driving and I did not feel like doing any work on the car unless I really had to as I had already taken my pain meds and my back was still hurting. My plans are to try the Mopar 337 single plane intake and a Dominator carb when I can get around to it. Ron

On my last outing, I didn't set any personal bests or anything, but the car ran five 10.90's , a 10.91, a 10.92, then sped up a bit in the afternoon with a 10.878 and backed that up with a 10.879 run. Same thing in elim's as you though as I dialed a 10.90 and ran a 10.913 letting off then slept at the tree in 2nd round and had to break out by .02 . One of these days I might find out that there is more than one round in eliminations!!!!
