After 2 years, last pass 7/2022.Had to stop due to health.
Mason Dixon had a Saturday TnT at night. I like running at night so decided to go and a friend(never been to a drag strip) actually agreed to help.
1st pass let off early to 10.87 Car felt good seem to have more power.
2ng pass ran it lifted at the stripe 9.82@128 1.26 60ft and 6.19 1/8
Only got to make 2 passes since arriving late but it felt good to make a couple passes
Car seems to make more power with single plane intake.

Awesome, what's the combo? I clicked on the video not expecting to see a Colt, that's super cool. A friend had one that was an old SCCA pro rally car, and my parents had an Arrow when I was a kid.

1.26 60'.... Oh yeah, there's a bunch more in that. I run an '80 Arrow (similar weight) with a worn out 440 that goes 9.40s with only a 1.31 60'


If it ain't broke ... you're not pushing it hard enough.

I kinda thought I did but the tree was flickering all kind of lights so I wasn't sure.
I was so tired at that point I just wanted to make a pass and go home. Last time, 2 years ago I only made 1 partial pass because the scoop caused the hood bracing to separate from the skin. I forgot so many things trying to make it. I started the car on Sat. morning has been sitting for 2 years.
