A few of you have been following my dad and I's progress on here, so here is our new best with Dad at the wheel. There is still more in it, but we really have no business running faster than 11.50 anyway. Huge thanks to 383Man, Streetwize, Mr P-Body, and many others for your constant advice and encouragement. Also, huge thanks to Hughes Engines for suggesting a great streetable pump gas combo that cruises as well as it did when it ran 13s. Never thought it would 60ft that well with the tight converter and stock suspension. Here is the combo:

69 Cuda. 3600 lbs with driver.

418 stroker 10.3:1 comp

Fully CNC'd Eddy Heads from Hughes.

Ported Airgap intake.

248/252 .600/.610 solid cam

Holley 750 modded to flow 910 CFM

MSD E-Curve dist with 6-AL

TTI torque stepped headers w/ Ultra Flo mufflers

3:91 727 Tight 10" converter.

M/T drag radials 275/50/15.

Stock suspension.

Here is the vid:

Congrats, Me and my dad were pitted next to you with the duster. Hopefully you guys can get that thing slowed down to 11.50, that's always a good problem to have. Good luck.

Thanks! You guys were good company. Hope to see you at future races. Thanks for the advice from both of you. You were dead on consistent yesterday. Glad we weren't running in your class. Lol.

I'm sure we will run into eachother again, you guys did pretty well yourself going those rounds. The track was working excellent, Ive read quite a few times how people had a new best 60ft including us. That is def a strong running smallblock, especially with full exhaust out the bumper

Very nice pass indeed ! And the 60 ft is not bad at all. Better then mine was the other night. Time for a rollbar and go hunting for 10's. Ron

Thanks guys. Thumper, Zippy, Mr Yuck and Rickster have been commenting on the car since the beginning, too. I knew it was just a matter of time before someone asked for the reaction time. Slip not in front of me, but it was in the low .600s. Lol. We were cutting good lights all weekend, save for that one.
