Im not gonna come close to that 60ft. Im hoping atleast low 1.40's. Spraying a car off the line will make a night and day difference especially with a nitrous setup which it sounds like you have with that tight converter. Regardless thats a bada$$ car you have there.

new set up after winter should be pretty nice

You will still see gains you just have to go when its about 65 there. If you go there in March or November you will be flying. Its about 6 hours for me. You will also seeing better times at Mason Dixon but not as much. MD is about 3 hours away.

I'm not planning on racing, I likely won't be ready. I'm hoping to make arrangements to drop off a short block there rather than go a couple more hours east. I'll let you know, I am going to go down with Chuck, Dave, and those guys.

**Balaska347** · 01-27-2010, 06:01 PM

Let me know. I was supposed to go with them for the turkey race but the car wasn't ready. Im trying to catch up to Chuck. He has that car running good. Is that a stock block in his car.

**Martin0660** · 01-27-2010, 06:54 PM

Yes, stock block. That car was a pretty good deal, didnt take much for him to get it sorted out.

**Balaska347** · 01-27-2010, 08:18 PM

Good Im glad to see his holding up. We should be real close this year depending on his winter mods. I might still be playing catch up.

Out of the box TFS TW heads and holley intake. This wasn't the best 60ft either it has had many 1.45's. Im sure there are some but not many that can put down a better 60ft on this site. So do I think this car makes torque... I would say yeah.

BTW thats a pretty stout fox you have there also

Man, you got whupped!!!

Wonder where that slip came from??? :D

hmmm... I think the guy in the other lane made copies and handed them out

thats why it was the only slip I could find.

Enjoy it because it wont happen again.

Great pass Chuck....12.49 on a 12.49 dial...... .017 light

**CobraII** · 01-29-2010, 11:24 AM

Thanks John. Mikey and I have fun with that one. If some of us were getting together, I'd make copies of that slip and pass them out, and people would come up to Mikey and hand them to him. One night, his girlfriend even slipped one in her bra for him to find later.

I was his mood killer from miles and miles away! :D

**Balaska347** · 01-29-2010, 11:27 AM

Yes you were

and still are. I find those slips everywhere and its been over a year.

**CobraII** · 01-29-2010, 11:31 AM

I gotta start doing it to Scotty too. :D

**Balaska347** · 01-29-2010, 06:13 PM

Yeah really why didnt you do it already.

I gotta find that slip. The problem is he has the 2 slips from the 2 finals in Street in '06 where he whacked me.

Ooooo, I did find a copy here.... time for a little fun.

Yeah but you never know. I had him by a tenth a the begining of last year and by the end he had me by two tenths lol. Plus everytime I had a car I thought was going to fly it ran slow and the one time I didnt expect much it surprised me lol. I have high expectations for this car.

**Balaska347** · 03-03-2010, 11:55 AM

Here is a video of the car completely done and waiting to go to the track. The next post will be the ET or a pic of the carnage

. It may take a couple trips to the track to get her dialed in.
