i think it's the speed of my brain tom not the car.

I got to tell you it gets worse with age too. :P Look at me I'm a prime example of it

your no old fart yet tom. but pretty soon you will get a bad case of C.R.S lol. when you put the milk in the cabinet and the ceral in the frig you know you have a problem lol.

Now Topsportsman1, Tom right?

We can still do anything we could as young'uns (it just takes longer to recover right?)

Yes thats correct Al,LOL

I got a little joke kinda here for ya.

There were 4 bulls standing in the pasture admiring a herd of cows at the foot of the hill.

Two young bulls and two older bulls,

The two young bull said to one another lets both "run" down the hill and "inject" them cows,of coase they both ran down there and done their dutys on one cow each,then they were done and had to go lay down.

The two older bulls said to each other lets "walk" down the hill and do all them cows. :P :P :P

Okay, Tom, now you're really showing your age! That jokes older than dirt. Still funny ( & true).

Tom,

Just remembered something my Grandfather said when I was a pup,

"It ain't the miles on that 'ole truck son, it's the kinda roads she's been drove down!"

Yeah you had one of them type of grandfathers too huh? :P Thats a good one

Mine always told me,
Just because there is snow on the roof doesn't mean the fire went out in the furnace

Another one he always said,

Your nummer than Larabee's calf,
He swam across the river to get out of the rain :P

Re: Give up your combo, e.t and mph
 

Oooops that happens, :P

Back to the scheduled program 8)

LOLOLOL....

And what egos slowman?
You mean I am not the only one with an ego?

Someone once said..."leggo my ego"

Well I have a 73 Trans Am with a mild BBC in it.

1.567 60'
7.218 1/8
93.27 MPH
11.654 1/4
110.34 MPH

Car is built for more horsepower, but my wallet isn't right now. It is still a deadly footbrake car right now. It ran 9.7x for the previous owner, so I just need mo money. :lol:

I found this car right here on RJ.

chevy65, leave me alone you know i can't spell very good. if you seen thins backasswords you wouldn't be making fun of me. and yes leggo my ego.

Soooo... lemme git this straight. If you ran a 17.2 with only two barrels, then in theory adding two more should cut your time in half, an 8.6! Out of a 307 no less!!! You're just trying to make me feel better, Thanks!

:lol:

ash you give me to much cerdit and trying to make you feel better lol. so all we have to do is add more barrels and the faster we go. when were you going to tell everyone the secert that you knew. :lol: :lol:

Well, the secret is out. I'm in the process of testing a new carb for a major manufacturer. It'll be a new 11 bbl double pumper.I'm looking at dipping into the 5.5's to 5.6's in the 1/4. Preliminary testing has shown very good results above 8800 rpm. But I'm having some problems below 5000. Any suggestions? :lol: :lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: ash your not right!!!!i like that.

This car looks absolutely fabulous in person...and it is a bullet!!!!

I still haven't seen Tom's numbers, come on let the cat out of the bag. I had a tube chassis Camaro with a 477 bbc ran 5.90's on gasoine. weighed 2890 with me in it. My daughter runs a 1990# dragster so her numbers probably won't impress anyone.

548 BBC
1050 Rupert alky carb
33.5x16.5x16 M/T
4:10 gear
launch 4400
shift at 2.00 seconds

8.0's at 166-168 mph

Before the suspension was added to the rear and with a smaller tire, the car ran best of 7.65 at 173 mph. Normally would run mid 7.70's. High gear only, it ran 8.30 at 170 mph. I have not tried the high gear set up yet this year. My gues is going to be 8.50-8.60 range at 165 mph.

SP..... don't pay any attention to the 8.20 dial. Holding 2 tenths is all an optical illusion. We would never try that :roll:

that's norwalk right? hows the pits and stuff since they paved up there? are they being strict since switching to nhra? i haven't been up there this year and am just curious! 8)

Yes, it has been a little stricter this year. They try to walk around and tech everyone right now because the tech stickers are not in. They said you can get tech for the year which will take 30-45 minutes to go over the car front to back or on a 3 month period which is the standard look around to make sure things look right.

The pavement makes the place look larger then it already is. It was always overwhelming to be on the starting line and look down track, but all the new additions make it more impressive.

my car is too fast to race up there, what i mean is, i wouldn't pass tech as i don't have a chute, window net is out dated etc, so i guess i will hafta update or wait till the end of the year to race on a real track :D looks like ya got a nice dragster there though!

Trust me, Bader is not turning a dollar away. They will tell you what you need to change before running again at the track. A lot of tech warngings being handed out, but no real enforcement that I have seen as of yet.

Carl, were you able to get to the track? If you did, what kind of numbers did you run?? I'm courious. (or just a bit nosey :roll: )

Nope,
I make my 1st pass Friday night.

I will post time slips as soon as their available....lol, I wanted to say that for a while now.
