10.1 -1/4 1.34-1.36- 60's

:steering:^^That put smile on my face!!^^:thumbsup:

Still learning the car. Only one round of eliminations, lost to a .008 package. Foot braking, I was .025 on the tree and broke out by .003...:BangHead:

I agree, we just need to control the landing. It hooks and leaves better than we could ask for. We will do the gear change and probably go with the Viking DA shocks and go from there. Thank you for your input.

We don't mind the wheelie, it's BADASS . We're just try to keep from breaking **** when it comes down. I think better shocks in front will help that. We will change the gear over the winter and I will push for new shocks. If that doesn't do the trick, we will play with the IC a bit.

Could you give me some tips on how to manipulate the IC? The rear is a latter bar/floating set-up

Couldn't fix the orientation....sorry But thats me in the far lane. If you look closely, you can see the diaper get wiped off the pan. It didn't come completely off, just ripped the front two straps.

Trans brake 4500rpm

Foot brake

No body roll. He is thinking 4:30 gear will calm things down on both ends. I will still push for D/A shocks though.

It runs mid 1.3 60's pretty consistently, granted we've only done one t-brake hit, it didn't change a lot. The trans brake launch was the first and only hit for the day, as it wiped the blanket off, so we put it in the trailer.

To my knowledge, it's basically a stock configuration. I'm 1800 miles from the car, but he can give me whatever info is pertaining to this. I really appreciate everyone's input, we won't be able to test any changes to the car until spring. We're just looking for the best/economical changes to...

It's not dead hooking...yet. It has pulled the wheels rolling out of the water during the burn out :lol:

He's working on getting it scaled. Would limiting the extension slow the lift? I'd hate to give up travel on the compression. We're leaving at 4500 off the brake, trying not to get too far away from the power band. I'll have him check the roll out on the tires. The pull isn't much at all, just a...

I will look into it, thanks!

Been looking at that too, the bars that are on it aren't very "robust" in my opinion, they have the spring loaded upper with the lower bar attached to a fairly chinsy looking bracket that hangs below the rear end. I guess I don't know how to use the quote function....lol I tried!

It stays pretty straight after the wheelie, just a slight pull to the right. Even foot braking it from 2200-2400 it pulls them up 5-6 inches and has the same slight drift to the right.

Lol, they were on the car when my Dad got it. Slowly trying to get it dialed in. We've only had it down the track 8 times. The pic is from the first ( and Only) launch off the trans brake. It's his car, I'm just the lucky bastard that gets to drive it...;)

Ye$$ they are...lol

4:88 gear. Considering making a change there as well, it traps at 7500. Would like to get that down a bit.

ET is 9.90- 10.1

Yeah, it's hooking great right now. I believe, as you said, that slowing the front a bit will help. Was just concerned that it may make it worse. Just trying to figure out where to put the focus. Thanks for the input!

Bars are in the middle hole.

Non adjustable.

Would slowing down the compression on the front shocks help to keep the car in my avatar from coming down and bouncing? Or will it make it worse? Right now it bounces 3 times after the hit. Also scuffs the pan a bit. It's a ladder bar car 90/10's on it at the moment. Looking at getting double...

Super nice folks, they actually have 3. Husband and wife team. I'll dig up a pick of their other one, it's amazing.

A shot if the staging lanes for the N/SS class at the World Series of Drag racing @ Cordova Dragway. "][/URL]

Your buddy is Bret Kepner? Awesome, he's a cool dude and a great announcer!

Sorry guys, OCDART has it. Cordova, Illinois. Great track, oldest continually run drag race in the world. 62nd annual.

Anybody headed to the "Series" this weekend? I'll be flying out Thursday night from Cali, I grew up at this race, and it's a good one! Will be there with my Pops in his 67' Dart, Kofron Racing. Stop by and say hi!
