Like it says. What was your best pass? If you made a new best, or the fastest pass you made this year, lets hear it.
I was fighting oil pans most of the year so I only made about 40 runs in the Valiant and none were new bests. But did put a new best sixty foot in the log book.
Best pass for 2013 in the Valiant was
60' 1.296
330' 3.828
1/8. 5.983
MPH 113.5
My next pass in the log book was a 1.280 sixty but a wheelstand and peddle job killd the ET and took out the oil pan.

Mine was about 87 MPH in my Crown Vic on Interstate I90 here in New York and I even got a cool timeslip from the NYS Police....does that count ?
Thats up about a good 2 or 3 MPH from my last one...I think I caught some good air...

I had my car done for over 7 years but with family responsibilities I could only get the car to the track about once every couple years to work on ET.
This year my kids graduated and I got some time.
I made many best passes this year but my last pass of the year was my best.

I was able to meet all my goals. I wanted to hit 110 mph in the 1/8th and 140 mph in the 1/4 as well as get the car in the 9's on street tires.

1.499 60 ft
6.37 1/8th
111 mph 1/8th
9.88 Et 1/4 mile
141 MPH

New best 60' number of 1.43....
Best run of the year was a 10.63 @ 128 mph but with a 1.61 60' number on the pass. I wasn't able to put it all together. Maybe next year?

12.18 @ 116.5 with a 2.05 60'

Was playing with timing on the launch and tried a new converter, but the trans started slipping bad before I could get any passes at the end of the season. Was shooting for a high 11...

I am hoping that with a better 60 ft. we will break into the 5s next year.
The car was scaled after this outing and has not been back out since.

I had one and only one pass this year. Bent the framerails on launch and went into severe chassis shake. Tryed to hang with it as long as I could but when I started loosing my vision I had to drop out of it and coast through. Dropped it at the 1/8 mark and coasted through the 1/4 at 10.74@108. Next year....Dave

Easy. Round three of the Jegs Pacific Sportsnationals which clinched the 2013 D7 S/ST title for me. Not sure if this will work from a mobile but here is the link to a video.

10.06 is a very good number. whats your car weight with driver? cant figure out how some on here with comparable combos to mine run 9's or very low 10's. their must be something in the trans holding it back. I run the same mph as you but@10.35. you run a dana?

Went 5.62 at 123 on this hit...60ft. was 1.33 with the back tires. It carried them about 120ft and was really one of the only times I have left off the wood with the new motor.


5.53 @ 125 1/8th on the launch control..more left in her!
