sweet!!!


When i was trying to work the bugs out of my race car,

We put a stock 360 in the car with around 300HP.

Well we had been fighting gremlins in the car and

couldnt make a good clean pass.

I finally got a half decent pass and put the car in the low 11's.

They were yelling at my dad because i had shorts on.

I put pants on the rest of the day and got it in the 10's.

Its pretty much a street car, and it has some parts on it that just seem to work. It just amazed me when it launched and the stock seats reclined under the hit, I thought it broke....Now I just need to work on my junk.

mph was 120.7...Pulled he air cleaner and it stayed the same, so I think we need to jet up a couple on front and rear. If it hooks, I will tossed. Drag radials just aren't slicks when it comes to traction. At least the 8-3/4 held togather this time and no dropped valves...
