    Won my first bracket race and it was CLOSE

    A local dragway that had been shut down for years re-opened this past weekend. I grew up on a farm not far from there so this place is in my childhood memories. I entered into the street tire class and round after round kept knocking them out. But I had no idea what I was running at a full pass...

    Tried Out This Bracket Racing Thing....

    I really never was interested in bracket racing and I didn't build the car to bracket race. I just wanted a quick street car that I could take to the track and just run it. So last weekend at the Hot Rod Reunion at Mo-Kan Dragway I entered into the Super Modified class. Back story real quick...

    Online Horsepower Calculators

    When using these online horsepower calculators, some say crank hp and some say at the wheels, yet give the same numbers. A guy at my work has dyno'd his car and ran at the track. He put his weight and mph in the calculator and he said the calculator is spot on what it puts to the wheels. So...

    Last Track Day of the Year

    Got back from an Elk hunt mid last week and found out the local track had one last event where I could run time only in between heats (I had only ran once all year :banghead:). Unfortunately they were only allowing 1 run per time only round so I made 3 passes. Last time I ran here in late...

    Monster Wheelie

    I follow 1320 video on Facebook and mostly they post modern cars racing and such. But every now and then they'll post an older car and sometimes even a Mopar. I just saw them post this video of a 600 ft wheelstand. It's probably been around before but still impressive nonetheless! BAD ***...

    Fuel Pump Inertia Switches

    So I've been looking at installing an inertia switch for the electric fuel pump cutoff in case of a crash situation. One thing I was concerned about is the sensitivity of these switches. I don't want to launch from the light and trip the switch. Anyone here use these in cars that see the...

    2" or 3" Belt Harness??

    Was wondering people's opinions on whether I should use a 2" or 3" belt harness for my car. Car will have both street and strip use and looking at probably doing a camlock type. The shoulder straps will mounted at the same point behind the driver/passenger (4 point type). I've never been...
