Finally got my ET!

[jmidolo]

Went to the track today. It's about 60* out and sunny. Made 1 pass. Said to myself, "Self, if you get your 11.5 you're going home" Staging lanes were pretty full so it would have been a 4-5 hr day to make 3 runs or so.

1st pass went 11.40@119 with a 1.5 60'. I want my 11.5 and I got it. Combined with my best MPH to date and I'd say it was a successful day.

The Old Man car's got some legs!

nice run!!! did you go home?

 

[jmidolo]

Yep...made my 1 pass. Stagin lanes were pretty full. Figured it would have been at least 90 more minutes to make another pass. By that time I was sitting in my chair on my 2nd beer!

You're welcome for all the hard work I've put in on that turd,
Congrats!

Yep, same HG. When I get ready to put some ported irons on it I'll take you to the Outback again. 119 on stock heads & cam ain't too shabby. Wonder what the car's got left in it before I think about heads. Oh..an trans is stock too...some big money to be spent soon.
