Finally got my cuda to the track and ran a best in 1/8 of 8.26 at 84.8 mph. Very pleased. I guess this would be in the 13's in the quarter. I am hooked. Still counting blessings nothing broke.

Old school I am getting ready to go to the track also with my dart.It will be the first time in 36 years for me to stage and make a pass.Last time in early 70s.My dart is about same set up only 3.90 gears and I would be happy with those numbers.Thanks Kevin.
 
Thanks for the 1/4 mile info. found the 1.58 multiplier to go from 1/8 to 1/4. Plan on taking it to mopar madness in august and will be excited if I can get in the 12's. I had'nt been to the track in 18 years & have never run in the 1/4.
