Went to the track today and one my second pass I accomplished what I was trying to get done today.

10.79 and a 1.4XX 60ft on 18" DR's!!!

The pass was a 10.79 @ 123.3 (MPH was low becuase the car cut out in 4th gear for some reason [Confused]

), with a 1.48 60ft!!! This HAS to be some sort of record. At least I hope it is. [Big Grin]

I guess because it cut out in 4th I'm going to have to go back another day and see what it can really do on a clean pass! [Big Grin]

Who needs slicks and skinnies with those 60ft's. [patriot]

Good job Drew, you keep raising the bar each time you're out there. 1.48 is ridiculous.

I only want the big and littles for the weight reduction. My Budniks are over 100lbs more than my slicks and skinnes. [Eek!]

It was a primer Vega. Went through the traps at 139 and then got way out of shape and began to roll. Ended up about 50 ft out in the field twards the return road. Right about where the EMT's sit actually. The guy was alright, althought he was stuck in the car for about 30 minutes. He mentioned something about it being his, "track debut. [Confused]

No, I don't think so. At least not with the car. I'm going through the tracp at near 7000 RPM's which is way out of my power range and it is killing my MPH. It may just be time to bolt on the slicks, (taller tire).

Posted by WolfPack (Member # 7177) on :

Well Im going this saturday, trying to go 10's. I hope to run into you at the track some day. if you do go I will have the ugly nova there. [Smile]

Posted by happygmore (Member # 7159) on :

congrats on the time, that has to be some kind of record on 18in DRs/motor/tranny combo

Posted by Yellow94GT (Member # 431) on :

Some pics.... [Smile]

THANKS CHUCK! [worship]

1.487

Posted by Team SOLO (Member # 722) on :

Thanks for the info bro...

By the way, that is a kick as sixty foot...congrats on that. The best I ever got out of my old car (maroon mustang/gray cowl hood)...slicks and lighter than crap was a 1.46...with a consistent 1.48/1.49...seeing that done on a much heavier car on 18" radials...good shit!

Posted by JohnB (Member # 969) on :

Good stuff Drew! Congrats!!

Posted by 1320MASTER (Member # 773) on :

I told you that car will go 1.45,1.48s are close with a little more suspension tuning it will do it nice runs Drew.Wife took this today it was spinning the tires and still lifting the fronts.

Congrats Drew [Eek!]

Guess you didn't have any probs w/ them warning ya about going so quick [Cool]

Posted by 98slowhoe 'FIFTYLX' (Member # 895) on :

Good Shit. I need to get to the track soon.

Posted by SmokinLX (Member # 1684) on :

Great driving rite there!! [Wink]

Posted by need-a-motor (Member # 5415) on :

That is very impressive!! That makes me think that I should be having an NA motor built. I had decided on a mild low comp 347 with my small heads and intake that would pass smog. It is being built out of a Dart block so I can put some boost to it to get power.

Do you have a cage and all of the necessary safety equipment for the 10's? What tranny do you have?

Nice 60ft!!!

Six sigma eh? I guess they will only be allowed 2.4 errors in the next 999,999 passes [Smile]
