[Email]12.29@107.5[/Email] SLOW
The car can haul 5 people, Tires never rub. Has a full stereo with 4 speakers and a 12" sub in the trunk. Will idle all day long in traffic and not overheat. No tire changes, no taking mufflers off or uncapping the exhaust. Working lights, heater, wipers etc etc.
I've easily made 500+ passes, thousands of street miles as the car sits.

1/8 mile stats, of course. Just a couple of weeks ago the Cuda went 6.97 @ 102.5 on street tires, no DOTs. 3,450 with me and fuel and it gets 12.5 mpg. Pump swill only and have driven it up to 200 miles a day. Oh, and that's all motor.
No DOTs as in no stickies? if so, wow!
'72 Scamp, 3500#, 440, S400, blowthrough, meth. inj.
9.78 @ 139 so far at 12 psi, 11.00 @ 131 on real street tires.

No stickies, just regular street tires. I have been running 7.15 to 7.30 often enough. But Sunday before last, it went 6.97 with a 1.54 60'. I think that the track had some prep left from the Saturday night program. Normally we run test and tune on Friday nights. I have 2 full years and probably 3,000 miles on these tires and they are getting short on tread and are as hard as rocks. I think this is proof that Cal-Tracs do work.
Master, again and still

Can we get a picture of the cars the posts are referring to?
Getting old just means you were smarter than some and luckier than others.

You guys are fast! I've only made 10 passes on the new combo, but I drive it there, flog it, and drive it home. Best is in the sig, worst is only a tenth off that. I need to learn to tune this thing, as most tell me my combo should be a lot faster than it is (??)
I refuse to feel bad about a 12 second street car built all by myself on a shoestring budget, though.

At Monster Mopar in St.louis with the ez efi my car did a best of 9.80 @ 139.13 mph in the 1/4 , 6.33 @ 112.40 mph in the 1/8th with a best of 1.54 60 ft. Now with the fast xfi and e-85 My car has done a best of 6.14 @ 119.33 mph in the 1/8th at my local track ( 114.33 actual mph my local track seems 5 mph higher then others). It was missing/popping some above 6700 rpm right before I shifted to 2nd and going through the traps. I only have 3.23 gears so I rev it out in 2nd in the 1/8th about 7100 rpm. My 60 ft has improved to a best of 1.43 with this new setup, along with the high rpm miss the data showed I was lean, but until I fix the miss I will not know for sure about it being lean at high rpm. I did richen it up more for the next time I go to the track just to see. Hoping it is open one more time this weekend, but it is calling for rain. Here is the 2nd pass I made at benton. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6m0fg28l2oWent 6.25 @ 118.85 mph ( 113.85 actual mph ). my third pass was 6.14, my fourth was 6.18. Hoping for a 6.0x pass once I fix the miss/popping. If you listen to my car over the chevy rattle cage in the other lane you can here the miss some right before I shift to 2nd.

I've run 10.50 @ 132 weighing 4100 + my 220 in the R/T.
Yes I run some 104 octane at the track , however just for extra insurance I do not adjust timing etc from my street tune. So other than slicks and drop exhaust open i am fully streetable. Hence front license plate in sig.

Your car gets my vote for the ultimate sleeper and I always chuckle when you talk about the wal-mart tires
