That has got to be the coolest oldschool looking car ive seen. Very Nice
Any track time yet?



Yep, just took it to the track 2 weeks ago. Keep in mind that I don't have much drag racing under my belt but I managed to make it down the track without hurting myself or anyone else. I made a total of 6 passes just to make sure the car was A-okay. ( it did break a little )

First pass got a decent burn out but since it was the first run I just wanted to take it easy. R/T .156, 1/8th 7.63, 1/4 14.47, 89mph.

2nd run: R/T .152 1/8th 7.45, 1/4 13.53, 87.67mph (Still short shifting into 3rd and cruising to the line)
3rd got a bad burnout tires spinning all through 1st gear: R/T .243, 1/8th 7.78, 1/4 12.28, 108mph
4th run: good burnout R/T .124 1/8th 6.97,1/4 11.96 114 mph (still short shifting into 3rd gear)
5th run: good burnout R/T .198 1/8th 6.73, 1/4 11.61, 107 mph.

The last 2 runs the MSD box seemed to be cutting out over 4k RPM. The battery was draining and I didn't bring enough tools to check it out or fix it. Figured I'd pack it up and crawl home. I drove the car there and my headlights were dimming to almost nothing so I just drove with the parking lights on.

So I have a little bit of work cut out for me. Tech inspector asked me to put the battery in a legal box since it's in the trunk, need metal valve stems on the wheels, and few other misc. things. Overall it was a blast and can't wait to take it back next month.
