My Dart went 11.30@118 on its fouth pass In full street trim.

The combo is
408 SB with ported W2 heads, small solid roller cam, 9.8 to 1, victor intake with a Holley 950 Ulta HP.
904 trans with a Dynamic 9.5 inch converter that works great.
8 3/4 rear end with 3.73 gears.
The car weights 3360 with me in it.
In the last four months I have put 2200 miles on the car, including driving it to Vegas and back last november.
I also drive the car to work a fair amount, 24 mile round trip and I hope to do Dragweek with the car this fall.

Once the car is dialed in Iam hoping it runs 11 Teens.

My combo is a 410 8.5 stock edelbrock heads 2 1/2 inch exhaust 4.10 dana 4-speed with a small hydrolic roller cam and a 750 CSU carb. Had a Paxton novi 1200 set up originally. Replaced that with a 2 stage edelbrock nos plate. cars best with the blower was 11.60 @ 116 mph. Best time with nos 10.44 @ 130. When i race it i do drive to the track and if nothing breaks i drive it home.So far so good. Car never gets above 170 degrees even on 90 degree days. PS love all the cars and trucks on this thread so far

Yes it does, unfortunately.
Kidding

Ugly '69 GTX, Home/self built 400 based 451 with good machine work 10.75:1, 93 octane, Edelbrock RPM heads without any porting, Porter Racing heads .630 solid roller, self-cleaned up Victor 383 manifold, so-called 1000 cfm race demon, 2" super comps into homemade 3.5" X pipe, ultraflow oval mufflers, 9" converter, 4.10 Dana, 29" Hoosier DOT tires.

Car has alot of weird compromises like a working heater, the battery is still underhood and so on. For some reason I just never wanted to change any of that. My favorite time to run is when it's 50 degrees out and I run the heater often.

It's 11 flat at 123 for the time being, it should be 10.80s or so when I get the chassis set up a little better for drag racing.

I didn't do squat in 2011, was busy building a new shop but am thinking maybe this is the year (I say that every year and always come up with a new excuse).

Here is me and John For...I mean Randy B./Labratt back in 2010 doing our burnouts. I'm in the far lane and you can't see my car very well (Trust me, this is a good thing):

Here's me and Randy going after it. Once again you can't see my car particularly well. I think I went 11.09 and Randy went 11.20s on that pass? Timeslip got wet and blurry, can't read it anymore:
Another link, click here

There are more pics, but anyone who has seen my pile will tell you, it's nothing much to look at. Hope to get after the numerous cosmetic issues after I see a few 10 second passes.

My Duster has ran between low 12s at a 2300 ft track to high nines at a 180 above sea level track depending on which motor and converter was in it. 446 C,I, 440 block, stock iron heads single four barrel went in the low 12s and high 11s., 452 C.i. 440 block with more cam and better heads went 11,30 to 11.40. 464 C.I. 440 block with Eddy RPM and a six pak went low 11s and high 10s on pupm gas 512 C.I. stroker 400 block went 10;70s with ported 906 heads and a six pak. Changed heads to a set of CNC ported Eddy RPM heads and increase the stroke (4.25 to 4.300) to make more compression(from 9,25 to 1 to 10.29 to 1), same cam, rods, pistons and six pak went 10:43. switch heads and intake to a set of Indy M.W port size SR with 76 CC, increased the comp. ratio to 10.79 to 1,and a Indy 400-3 intake and a Holley 1050 Dominator carb went 9.993 Car is a 1971 Duster that weighs 3450 lb with me in it, Oregon non ethanol 92 octane pump gas, Dana 60 now with 4:10 gears, T/A 8 inch race converter, ladder bars and coil overs, M/T 13.50x30x15 ET Street bias plys and 315x60x15 M/T ET Street Radials.

Coronet has a 501 (400 block) Indy lil ez heads comp roller .704 with 268/276@.050,1050, Hooker super comps through 3.5inch Hooker Aero chambers with turn downs at the rear bumper,Dana 60 with 4.10 and 315 drag radials on pump gas ran 10.22@ 129. Weighed 3800 with me at the time.
Duster has a .020 360 with a .508 hydraulic,stock rocker arms on Edelbrock heads out of the box,air gap with a proform 850. TTi headers through 3 inch magnaflows with x pipe on a 275 drag radial,4.10 gear and pump gas ran an 11.77 @ 114.
Both cars have monoleaf cal tracs with 90/10 calvert shocks and batteries in the trunk.






The 501 is making its way into the Duster so hopefully it will be a 9.90 pump gas street car

I forgot to mention that my suspension is all stock other then 3400 lb SS springs in the rear with the long C-body shocks. The front is all stock but with comp 90/10 shocks. Ron

My best times actually came during Monster Mopar Weekend last year when I was trying to slow the car down to make the 11.0 index class...I added all the extra weight I had, let off WAY early and went 10.88....I think there are 10.70's in my future.

mowder

Sure a lot of pictures of cars with slicks on them.

What's wrong with slicks? I have pictures with radials too.

I always drive on my Hoosier radial slicks. They handle pretty good on the street. Ron
