alright, since some of you want to go as a group - how about on 1-12-08. as i figure that the dates towards new years most or some may not make it. i'll put in leave for that weekend as i'm coming from Alb,nm.:biggrin: so what do you guys/girls say YA or NAY?

 

[d90dan]

There is a club day at speedworld on 01/13/07. Normally 5-6 locals cars make it (12 to 8 second buicks).

[NOTSOFAST]

My buddy Tom and I will be coming up. should make for an interesting drive. want to see if sea level really makes a difference. would be happy with even 1--11scnd pass.

With some good weather, you should be able to get an 11 in Abq, what was your 60ft time?

Best 60 for me on M\T drag radials is a 2.1 spinning all the way through first and a good portion of second. M\T et streets will get me 1.9, again with wheel spin as soon as the boost flares up to 15 pounds or so. My best to date is a 12.4 at 113mph. Seems that getting 113 mph at 5500 elevation should be plenty of power to go deep into the 11's at a lower elevation combined with some traction. I'd do a backflip if I could just get into the 1.7 range. Tom

60ft is in 1.6 range, but have a problem not mph/ing more than 107 with a ET of 12.5. best ET was 12.2 at 105mph.have turned up FP to 45 and know it seems to pull better at top, but track is know closed-so can't see if higher FP really helped. combo is TE60-V4-cc 206-212-pp stock heads-50lb inj-pat's 32-34 tc-Razor's alky kit and TTchip.

With my '86 my best was an 11.79 @ 116 with a 1.7something 60 ft. Stock untouched long block, PT51, V4, 50#'s, 3200 stall running 20#'s of boost. You have any DirectScan runs recorded? I think you should have more power left in that combo.
Tom, what are you running for suspension? I never had any luck at that track with drag radials, It took DOT slicks, air bags, nasty burnout and a 12# launch to get me in the 1.7's. The '87 I am going through this winter, changing a bunch of stuff and possibly adding some weight to the rear.
