Looks like I should have the truck out so goal #1 is to debug and get some quality seat time.

1. To get the new motor tuned and running well. 2. To NOT break the new motor, or any other parts that will cost me $$$ I don't have. 3. To be moderately successful with some bracket racing (to this point, I've just been running my street car at larger street car events)

Well, I put the dragster back together with a 500 hp pump gas 383...(broke the 496 at the first race of 2008, car has been sitting since), put the Toilet on it...sounds good...now to see if I can get used to looking over my shoulder in a "slow" dragster...in the DFW area most of the dragsters in S/P are now running between 4.50s and 4.80s...should make for some interesting stripe driving going 6.0s or so... ...so I suppose my goal for 2010 is to get the combo sorted out and go a few rounds while making the fast cars crazy...

Run a consistant 11.50 with reaction times .040 or better. Break nothing. Make the fall "Mopars at the strip".

1.) I'd like to see an 11.99 out of the dart. Got a couple tenths to go, so I'll need to make a change or 2 to get that. 2.) Win Another Championship, Not sure if I'm staying in sportsman or moving up to pro. I know I can be competitive in both, just have to make the choice. 3.) It seems obvious, but have fun, be safe, and keep the car in one piece.

My goal is to first lighten up to at least 3600 race weight. I have glass bumpers already painted silver and hood with raised (4")RO scoop, used magnum force front end (500 miles)with manual rack. Install motor plate,low mount mini alternator. Pull engine out to freshen up,install girdle,maybe change heads and cam, declutter under the hood while the engine is out,fill in holes and repaint car. Check air in tires after I get all that done If all that works out then maybe run some 9's in street trim.
