there was a good turn out of muscle cars. Fasted run was a 8.20. there was a Sac racer up in a little white Nova (mid 60's) that hauled ass. He didn't have enough to cover the fastest Redding car but he was still fast. Not to good of a turn out for the Ford camp. My first pass was a 11.11 with a 1.70 60 foot time but it was missing a little in high gear. I didn't better that any I was two busy watching races for a change and BS'ing LOL. Plus the tech gestapo started watching real close. I did run one pass while the were watching and let off hit the brakes and ran a 11.502. 11.49 and they were going to be all over me. LOL next time

LOL I am going to do a bar. The problem is my 69 is in my grage and I could get it going for not two much more that what it is going to cost me to get my 91 legal. It already has a bar and is set up for drags.(plus it is faster)I am probably going to wait until I get the boot to figure it out

....gottcha

I have a feeling i'll be in the same predicament as you very soon ...flirting with that 11.49 lol

I think i'll have 1 more go at the track in this set-up to get a mid 11 and then probably some spray and a little luck to hit a 10 before the track police get me

I just don't know if my stock clutch can handle it...maybe i'll hold a record for a 10 sec stock clutch Cobra

edit: and stock Eaton since Jeff S has hit a 10 w/ his KB car but i'm not sure about his clutch

LOL....but Sean has yet to get that 10 sec slip

But trapping 133 is plenty proof it's in there

I haven't talked to him in a few weeks do you know what he's up to...KB? another port-n-spray?
