Are yall going to run or to just show your car. If you are going to run I hope that track is better then the last time I was there. I was with a buddy who has a mustang and he could not get the car down the track. The best we could get out of the car was 9.65. The car was fine for about the first 1/8 mile then after that the car would start to skate around like it was on ice. Good luck and have fun.

I hope everything goes good. But the night I was there the weather was fine. It seemed like all the fast cars were having trouble getting there car down the track. It must have been an off night.

It's an all motor car. He has been a 9.09@149. He is going to change a few thing over the winter and try to put the car in the high 8's

The motor is a high winding 351 based motor. It has alot of compression and big cam, very good cylinder head and intake and a dominator carb. He spins the motor 10,000 and it has a Jerico 4 speed transmission. I can't give away all the secerts I have to stay ahead of the slowmaros.
