    I'm not sure when, maybe next year or winter 2010... I still have to buy a new clutch, flywheel, fuel system, pushrods, and a lot of little odd's and ends..

    Thanks man! I drive it to and from the track 55 miles each way and have zero issues, it's a street car! No trailer queen here!
    I will never build a car that I can't drive to and from the track as then that is just a straight racecar in my eyes...:)
    The best thing about it though is that after driving it there and racing it all night then I drove it back home in one piece!
    Reliability, streetability, and big speed in that order.

    Come next spring, I will be making some tweaks to the suspension and the cars weight in hopes to pick up some more e.t. and mph at a faster track than Quaker City Raceway.

    Here's the crappy quality video from the track. Its the 1st run and the 3rd run.

    I had mine to the track back in August I think. I was pretty dissapointed in my times - 13.5. I was having major traction issues - even in 3rd gear. I have Nitto 555 street tires and would like to buy some 315 MT ET drag radials. That won't happen till next year, however. My teenage sons seem to have a way of taking all of my leftover money.
