Yep We were there ....

First time for me running with any type of drag radial ever...
Best time 13.07, 60 ft 2.01, all @107.79..and I was spinning .....
I need to work on my burn out technique

I also need to get rid of the air shocks in the azz end as there is no give in the rear so not sure if that would help.....they will be off in a few weeks and hopefully we will be back in Aug.....hopefully I can borrow Andy tires again.....

I actually ran a 13.06 @108 on street tires peddling the car.........figure that one out.....


Ernie and Andys cars are ridiculous.....in a good way

I wonder what Andy and Ernie do, sway bar wise. I've never raced, but have read in the past to loosen them or leave them off???
My buddy had a 72 GTO that was raced from day one, it had front and rear sway bars fully intact with plastic bushings in the end links. This car had some kind of drag race shocks, road like a lumber wagon on the street, mind you this was 1970's technology.

It has been years since I've pulled my front sway bar off..I didn't like the feel of it especially when if I get sideways that was with 375hp in a 13 second car..I may experiment with it a bit...but for now the car leaves very level and smooth...Once I get a proper video I will put one up..My suspension is very simple..just CE 3 way adjustables...90/10 50/50
