Not trying to be a wise guy but are your drag strips  quarter mile  or are they measured in kilometers?

402.25 m. But this time, it was in UK so..

16.2 was with the 340 and 2.76 rear end. I didn't shift the 3 rd speed. :)
now, it's 12.5, now engine is 416 ci, rear end 3.73 with GV behind the 727. :) :)

And you had to go all the way to Blighty to run it? Sheesh! As stated, nice improvement in the ET.  :bigthumb:

Yes, in Uk if you want a good track. And it was the MOPAR EURO NATIONALS.  :smile: :smile:
Here in France, there is only 1 quarter mile track. :angry:
After we have to rent for a WE, circle track with a long straight line, or small aerodrome. It's a pity. :tired:

Aerodrome!? Really?  I seem to remember a taxi ride through the Bois de Boulogne where I was SURE we'd entered a drag strip! I know I remember wishing we had a roll bar, that's for SURE!  :))
