92.5 mph should be about a 7.4 with good traction and about a mid 1.6 60ft in a heavyish street car.

The track is Speeds New Hope. Fun little independent track about 30 miles from me. I gotta dig up my old best at Indy which was a 12.2 with I think 7.80. Great weather. Cool engine. One of the best tracks in the world. This was definitely an improvement on that considering conditions and location. I was really happy. The weak link in the setup is the 1310 rear u joint. It makes me afraid to really let it go since I drive my car to the track. I don’t have a trailer. I also think I might have had too much air in the drag radials. I had them at like 17psi. I feel like I’ve had lower 60’ times with more like 15psi. I REALLY want to be able to say I have an 11 second car. I thought I was going to need to change to more gear than the 3.08s or go with a bigger cam to get there. But now I feel like I might be able to get there easily with what I have.
