Default Friday Night Throwdown

So on Friday night, I went to the local 1/8th mile track with my 1980 Trans Am. It looks all factory on the outside, except for the YearOne snowflakes with 275/40/17's on all four corners (Mickey Thompson Drag Radials in the rear). My car is a 462 with FiTech fuel injection, E Heads, Hyd Roller cam, performer rpm with 3.42 gears and a 2600 stall. The track was pretty empty so I made some passes. Cut a 1.64 60 foot time on these low profile drag radials and went 7.50 at 93 mph. Density altitude was 2000 ft so my time should be around a 7.30 at sea level. There was a buddy there driving and tuning his friends trailblazer SS. This thing had a 413 cubic Inch LS3 block and heads, good sized cam, 4000 stall, drag radials, whole nine, etc. We both stopped for gas around midnight after leaving the track, and when we merged on the interstate, he pulled up beside me from around a 30 roll. My car hooks good from a 30 in first gear. So we kicked it on his third honk and I put a good gap on him from the punch and kept on pulling to around 110 and let off. Although his trailblazer is heavy, so was my Trans Am with a passenger and full 20 gallons of gas. Good Kill for the Bird! Love my Poncho!
