And possibly some more rear tire pressure.

Very Nice Brad. It gets with the program. Wonder who his chassis guy is?

Just changed the ride height and pinion angle on ladder bars. So first pass went right, made adjustment and went straight next two passes.

12.5 pounds in 28/10.0 stiff wall slicks with tubes in them. Think we will be switching to radials next year, hopefully.

It's out of gear, goes 118 to the eighth and 144 to quarter. Will go 148-9 with gear change. Oh yes it's all Mopar too, 904 transmission and 8 3/4 rear, goes 1.25 60'.

3K with or without driver? Darryl's been looking at other choices for his W-8 Drag Week car, because he doesn't think he can get the 69 Dart light enough...

Nice! This is TShell that makes the k-members? If so, it looks like its working well.

Do you know what size that radiator is? Looks small'ish

With Driver Tori's car is a very light a body. Tory is also 160 pounds so it's not like me sitting in it at 215. Car still has factory back seat in it. I wish my 67 was as light as his. It is a ladder bar and tube front end with coil overs all around.

Yes it is TShell that makes the front ends. This car has one, as well as mine. The radiator is the small opening on his car. I want to say it's 24x19 but my be a 22x19.

I like it! With the people involed on this car I am sure it will be picking up even more after it is sorted out.

As a So Cal racer I am a little confused by the trees and grass in the background. You can have that at a race track? laugh2

1.25 60' is pretty darn good for foot brake especially on a small tire.

Brad stop fibbing you were 215lbs in the 9th grade....:)

This from a man who's only desire when getting an enclosed trailer was that it had a refrigerator smile
