Well, I know there are quiet a few people on this board who have been working hard to get there cars up and going. What has everyone been doing and what times can we be expecting?

And most importantly, when will we be seeing them? [Confused] [patriot]

(Just trying to get the Drag Racing forum a little playsince we haven't been having good enough weather to actaully drag race!)

HMMMMMMM I know this one guy that is doing a pretty sweet little set-up;

306cid
S-trim(12lb boost)
RPM intake
Twisted wedge heads
B-31 cam
power pipe
3:73's
ETC. ETC.

The only thing is, he has been trying to save money to buy another car to put that engine. Hopefully it will be around sometime this spring. Hoping to get a 124mph out of it and he might be able to just kiss the 500mark??????

Well,
I have couple of minor mods that I hope will be worth about .15 sec's when combined w/ some cold air. [Wink]

Then- it's blower time! (so I can keep up w/ your skinny ass..)

I know I dont have anything big, but my goal for next season is to be in the 13s. I was at 14.18 in october and am looking at getting a set of drag radials to get me closer. U guys think I can make it to the 13s with a set of DRs? My 60' was usually around 2.2

Dropping your 60ft times down to a solid 2.0 will get you into the 13's with easy. A 2.0 60ft should be easy for you to accomplish with some pratice, or you could just get lucky [Wink]

Yeah I'll be trying my new setup tomorrow. New rear tire, chain, and sprockets. Went from a 48 to a 49 in the rear, LOL. At least if I can't stay in front of someone now, I will better be able to fend them of with the 450 thumper roost.

I'm considering new pickups for my setup. Maybe a new amp as well, my current gear sounds too compressed. Oh we're talking about cars? I only have "the garage mod" planned for 2007. Garage mod = actually owning a house so I have a garage to put the 'stang in. Very important mod.
