Oooooohhhhh soooo cloooose! You'll get it next time out.

Keep at it Shawn, too close to quit now.

and the saga continues. if only you hadn't eaten that last meal, you would have had that elusive snowman.
oh so close.

Thanks for coming! I enjoyed watching you run. You will make the eights!

Shawn you will get it! What was the DA? Maybe you could correct the DA and still have an 8 second run.
Good job on the win Don

Seems like a good $#!+ and a 1/4 tank less fuel and you have it.

The 9.00 was awsome and that is a beautiful car. And still using the buttons! Great talking to you yesterday.

Its good to put a face with a screen name. It would be a boring ride if i didnt have buttons to push!

So close .. your there! fix your leaks and come spring you will get you 8 sec run

Shawn

What you running for fuel system?

Q16

Injection or carb?

2 1150s

Ah Ok....any thought to alky injection? It will definatly pick up some bottom end and create some more torque. But if your on the edge traction wise, might be more of an issue.

My lil bros 65 all steel coronet, back half car with single toilet and 490 inch motor goes 1.28 sixty foot, footbraking. However he has pretty mild cam and heads which creates some major torque down low.

Dayum your close man....

Never really thought about alky. My car is so "touchy" with traction anyways. Ive got a hard enough time putting what power i have to the ground already.

I was kinda surprised it didnt 60 better at this track? I have had some 1.27s at my local track an its hit a miss.

I thought your car was touchy with tracks.... alky injection may be more of a headache than you really need then.

I should add lil bro's car goes 1.28 sixty, foot braking but runs 9.5s. It has small cam, very small cam in it. He wanted a low RPM motor that was easy on parts. Its 4 link back half with torsion bars up front.

I will see if I can find a video of it.

Sweet post some video!
