Any ideal on the 60' with the calTracs?


Pretty stout!

I leave in 2nd when traction is limited or when I'm using true street radials. 1.72 is the best I've pulled off with them and Cal-Tracs.

The time slip for the championship 10.00 run is on the first page ... 1.61 60'. 10.009 on a 10.000 index is slicing hairs to long way! That's pretty close to breaking out. And wining the 9.50 class at the same event ... priceless. I bet a lot of people in the pits were talking about that Purple AAR 'Cuda.

I'd be putting some of my winning $$$ into the basket at Church thanking God for the help.

He lost first gear at DW last year, not sure if he got it fixed, or is leaving in second because he wants to, either way, car is a bad sumbitch, and Randy is super nice and cool to talk with.

Yes, has a 727 with a Gear Vendor, has a 4.30 rear gear set.
He said first gear is fixed, issue was caused by a aluminum drum, some aluminum from it made its way into the valve body.
