Here's a vid of my first time on a drag strip in 17 years. my best run of the day was a 13.71@ 101.5mph. I was a little disappointed with the times, but I found what I needed to change to make it better. Those changes are being done over the winter and I'm planning on running the summer race series here.

I wish Rich! I was staged deep. My reaction time on that run was around a .750 on a .500 tree. Kinda crappy;) My stall convertor then was a 2200. The engine would bog as soon as a mashed it out of the hole then the tires would bust loose. I'm putting a 3500 stall in it now, plus changing the cam to a solid roller lifter. That and the slicks should have me running in the mid to low 12's.
