Thanks Neil.

I took the car to a local small 1/8 mile track just to play with it a little bit back in mid November. I went 6.04. That was actually a little quicker than I thought it would run with the converter that is in it. Hoping to get it in it's natural habitat this spring and made some runs down the 1/4 mile. I iwll keep you posted...    :driving:

A relatively slow 1.42 60' time. That thing flat out hustles once it gets moving. The converter is is too tight for a great track time. It is a 3800 stall Continental converter. A 5000-5500 and a trans brake would make that thing flat out leave the line, but that takes away the street manners and I drive all over the place spring-fall...

That's a really good 60' for a car that can still be driven on the street!!!!
Title: Re: Forgive me, I am old and slow......
Post by: HP_Cuda on January 11, 2017, 11:45:11 AM

That's like a 9.56 quarter mile time, that's moving!

Sounds like you have a puller, meaning a top end car. How's the launch going?
