Great work and it sounds like there's more to be found.

But who's guess was closest?

A 1.29 60 foot with a pump gas engine must have felt sweet. Nice job Brian. Do you plan on running the 1/4 Mile ? Should be well into the 9s.
Maybe we could get some 1/4" mile E.T. guesses going on.
Getting a 1.29 is a goal of mine.

OK, my guess

60 Foot ET = 1.2952
330 Foot ET = 3.7566
1/8 Mile ET = 5.8737
1/8 Mile MPH = 114.8393
1000 Foot ET = 7.7374
1/4 Mile ET = 9.3188
1/4 Mile MPH = 143.1552

If it will pull the 1/4 I think it will run 9s

Wallace says 9.30ish.
How quick did your Barton High Port on pump gas get you ?
Seems you are not that far away from it.

Man that is a beast! The Car ran 8.60s in the 1/8 mile back in 1991 so this is a big change!
