Who did it? Was it Tom? Any info on it?
I forgot to mention this car has never been trailered anywhere. I drove it 110 miles there and drove it back. Actually drove it 300 miles yesterday:tongue: .
I feel honored that your 6000th post was in my thread:biggrin: .Damn dude, did you have to rub salt in the wound!!!???

cool hope my stock axles can handle 5lb t brake launches!With a 28" slick and a 1.55 60' it should happen at 24 psi.
Is about 3100rpm at zero boost/vacuum. I had no idea what would happen on my first pass with the brake and said i would only make one pas with the stock bottom at 130+. Since i blew the tires of on the first pass i just took it easy on the second pass. The 3-4 lb launch netted a 1.59. I know it would have held 7-8 off the foot brake after the first pass was solid down low. If i went again i would have left harder. Probably 10 teens or high ten 0's. Thats on 22 degrees and 3600 lbs. If i could have done it over again i would have used a 29" slick, had the car about 100 lbs lighter, 24 degrees advance, and an 8-10 psi t-brake launch. More than likely would have seen 9.90-9.93@135 if the 60' was a 1.45-47. IF it stayed together.bison,congratulations on that pass,you have an excellent combo there with more on the table with the 60ft.that ptc seems to couple well up top,what kind of stall due you run?i see the track prep isn't what it could be but are you just riding the turbo out as it spools or do you feel the car is loaded enough on the launch?
It will be a tight situation on the axles if it spools fast. it should take some low 1.50's without failure but you never can say for sure. Bring a spare pair of axles with you.cool hope my stock axles can handle 5lb t brake launches!
Not on this shortblock. If you have a girdled shortblock assembly i can borrow ill be over Tuesday night and we will pull mine and throw all the parts off it on the one you supplied. Then throw it back in my car. Then you will see 9'swed will be a perfect race night maybe a few more runs!! 9's
:biggrin: ok
hows this if I blow up mine wed i'll be calling Bobby to build me a girdled shortblock
