I wish mine would leave that hard. Maybe if I lean forward like that.

I can't believe how well the car leaves ! I'm actually kind of worried about putting 4:10 gears now , if it does that with the 3:55s .

I just dropped the car off to get the rest of the cage done so when I go to Reynolds I won't have to worry about slowing down the car or getting the boot . Then we plan on running the good 175 shot in it and see what it does . Eddie at compucar says the car should easily dip into the 10s on the 175 jets he gave Darryl for it !

Thanks guys !

And as for the rpms it goes through the 1/4 in the low 5k range with the 3:55s . It needs to be going through in the 6k+ range .

Pickelstang I'll never be able to launch like you , your in a class of your own .

Paul my cobra went 7.0s with mid 1.6 60fts so......... But I think you should get it to the track and see ? And also remember I have a catapult for a front suspension .

It could be fun to watch. You need to try to get that sled to the track.

Nice picture.

I don't care about my truck doing a wheel stand, I just wish I could 60' like that.

Good angle on the launch.

I was down in Bradenton before Christmas watching a track rental and they were less than accommodating.

They were preparing for the Pass Time show on Speed, so perhaps that is why they appeared indifferent.

Very nice Jeff. We can put a little air under the tires, but nothing like that.
