'05 was the year I didn't race and brought that Martinique blue '78T/A that I had painted to sell, remember?
So I believe it was '04 when I did the shootout.

Larry great results on your car, probably could go faster in cooler air too,but you are incorrect on comparing mph a manual is completely locked up and mph higher than an auto with the convertor and tranny loss.Look at NHRA class records sticks always higher. The guys that chassis dyno also saw the same thing,much lower loss with a stick.

Floyd barely got in the 11s that same day as the track was way off also.

One of next PSNs at the 1/8 mile still hot temps(son puked from the heat) the car ran 7.08@ 99 in the 1/8 with a 1.55 60 ft. The 1/4 mile run with Mike Cooke the next year just a little cooler 11.08@ 122 mph, then tech put a damper on full out runs.

Good air this weekend, let's slam an auto(or my 5 speed) in that 79 and go racing Larry! I'l bet we can hunt one up!

We're getting close to being out of our few months of good air here.
