I saw your car run and it runs good!! I wish mine would come alive, I just need to work out the bugs, my 60 foot were off
1.69
1.60
best was 1.52
and my car seem to nose over before the shift light came on @6500
(Fuel maybe)
and I go through the lights in top of second gear.
looks like you got your 9 no problem!!
it was crowed last night. funny how many come up to the line and dont know how to stage there car, I saw one guy stage with his rear wheels, I bet his 60' time were good!!

Get that puppy to hook at the higher RPM and you might have some more left in it. Congrats on the new best.

Congrats Thumper, I would bet your next 1/4 mile pass is the one you were looking for.

As far as my license passes, not for a while since I don`t really want to cage my car yet but a buddy of mine has a high 7-sec. 55 chevy and I`m trying to talk him into letting me drive it. Doubtfull but you never know and I`ll drive anything but never own a chevy myself.

Nice job. No reason why it shouldn't run in the 9.90's in the 1/4. Gotta love that.
