Well the Arkansas fairgounds opened up today for 1/8th mile racing . The first race a Pro street S-10 hit the wall and hit the cables that printed out et. slips. So I didn't get any slips but I guy in a souped up 5.0 L had his wife watched us and listened for our times from the tower. I ended up running a 7.77 @ 90 mph and he ended up smoking the tires really bad and running a 9.00 flat.
I never did get beat and I had a ton of guys approach me and ask about my lil modular Stang.
I'm really stoked about the runs because my car has been stuck in the low 8's for 3 years.
The mods that made me run faster than last year are as follows: P.a valvebody , skinny front tires , 275/60/15 Nitto drag radials with ss lowers( these hooked ten times better than my 245/50/16 Nittos with stock lowers), slotted blower pulley for no slip and welded up water jackets so I could run the larger 99 & up intake gaskets.
What do you guys think? Am I running pretty good for a old slow Eaton?
