I’m hoping to get to the track before the end of the season, we have 3 more weekends of Lebanon and Island is open into November, but I don’t really want to go to Island (shut down is short) and I don’t want to go in November. Last time I went in November the air was good but the track was just too cold.

I’d like to get a good time slip for my car as is before I start my winter upgrades, which is going from 440Source stealth heads with shot valve guides to some TF 270s.

Making a switch from 4.10's to 4.30's , trying to get some 60' back.

hopefully installing the new [to me] refreshed 440 in my charger.
a simple combination, slightly reworked rpm heads, 590 purple cam, eagle crank and rods, with 11:1 ross pistons.
2" TTI pipes, 3 1/2" to an x pipe, then 3" out the back.
a 4k converter and a reverse manual valve body with a brake. [although i'm not sure i'll be using it.]
with 3.91 gears and 29x12.50 hoosiers, i'm hoping this heavy thing will go low 12's at the airport drags.

Have you thought of making the low gear ratio steeper?
I did, went from stock 2.45 to a Mopar direct connection set of 2.77 low gear ratio, and my car really like it a lot
The starting line ratio has a big effect on every part of the race

Cab...actually thought about it a few months ago when i was in the transmission with the hope of increase the SLR and keep my top end mph, according to Wallace my current SLR is 10.05. And now that i m thinking about just gearing it for the 1/8 mi and keeping at that for now, who knows maybe I'll change doing the cold months .

Building a strut front end, getting rid of the transverse torsion bars, probably switching to m1, hopefully lose about 300lb or so

I made the switch from 4.10s to 4.30s in my Dart and I saw no difference but that was with my stroker motor with 502 lbs of torque because the 4.88s I had were too much with the rpms to high at the stripe. I now have my " small " 367 c.i. motor in and still run the 4.30s it could really use more gear I have 4.88s but the car is running and leaving good so the 4.30s might just stay in. A lot has to do with if the tracks around here switch to 1/8 mile from 1/4 as a lot of tracks are then the 4.88s would really be beneficial.

Might change her name

I have some very difficult decisions to make. 2 jet sizes or 4!!! Birdtracker

Try to finish last seasons upgrades.

Improve the rate, at which funds, get deposited into my racing expenses portfolio.

now that's the best upgrade ever !

No doubt! My operation has sat 95%, since 2007. I’m sick of sitting. Everything is race ready, just not enough $$. ☹️

Probably the biggest reason of several that I haven’t been in a hurry on my heads up car. I want to race weekly and can do that with my black duster. I don’t have the money to play with those sharks and it’s rough being a one man show. Thank God almost everything I need for this winter is sitting here or paid for already. Except I would like to have a spare duplicate of the converter I’m running. A few porting jobs will help start building next years racing funds.

I recently finished driving a potato harvest in a M1070. Quite the experience, and it put cash into my pocket.

Carb is coming off and sending back to Dale Cubic this month; changing fuel setup from VP Q16 fuel to applicable nitrous-friendly fuel.

Install Safecraft Fire System.

For the Challenger I would like to go to Holley EFI with twin Dominator throttle bodies from carburetors. For the Roached Runner I plan on some more performance upgrades for this is sleeper. Upping the jets sizes in both stage on the NOS also.
