Last year I ran 88, this one I massively improved my 60’ but only 82. I’m going to cool down and try to make one more pass. If the fuel system doesn’t give up on me I really think it has a 7.9 in it.
That's a very low 13 at about 102-ish mph. Fuel problems are a headache.

60 foot isn't too bad for a street car, 1.78 is respectable.

I thought you had an in tank pump on that thing with 1/2" lines....??
