New best ET' !!!!!!

DRAGRACR · 09-29-2003, 12:35 PM

Who says that AFR 210's are too big for a 357ci........... :lol:
This is an 11.4:1 357 ci and N/A.
Anyway, raced at the Fastest Street Vette Shootout this weekend, and yeilded some pretty decent results for the first time out with a crappy tune, and a high rpm miss.....

My best ET

60' 1.553 new best
660' 7.133 new best
660' mph 98.96 new best
1320' 11.147 new best
1320 mph 120.78 on the brakes

I dialed a 11.20 and broke out in the finals of the bracket class with a 11.14. My best mph of the event was 126.71 mph.

The DA was 2065' at the time of this run.

(DRAGRACR) you were running strong my friend. I hope to step up my quickness in the early part of 2004. You better work on that R/T are you might get Treed! :iagree: :lol: :lolg:

Your car is running stout. If they had run the event on Friday you could have waited till the light turned green and won the NA class :D
Your car ran flawlessly Friday night. Good run btw when we ran in the brackets ( I need to work on my lights).
It was alot of fun and hopefully they will have another one in November.
:cheers:

Thanks Ced. The R/T and 1.72 60' killed me. No excuses here, but I will be back. :D

DRAGRACR · 09-29-2003, 03:14 PM

Thanks Brandon! Well I am not too displeased with its performance for the first time out. Got to find the miss and I will be good to go!!! Yeah, you were pulling on me on top.

Congrats on your win in the True Street Quick 8 class!!!!! :cheers:

Matt383 · 09-29-2003, 03:56 PM

DRAGRACR · 09-29-2003, 04:10 PM

Thanks, Edgar, that is the way I was looking at it..... :cheers:

I am running 26x11.5-15 ET Streets on 15x10 Weld Draglites out back and 15x3 1/2 up front with Mickey Thompson front runners.

Matt383 · 09-29-2003, 04:19 PM

I was thinking of about the same set up on my '88.
I have 13" rotors up front.
How'd you fit those on with clearance for your calipers?

DRAGRACR · 09-29-2003, 04:35 PM

I cant help you on the clearence of the 13" rotors (I am runing stock still), but I am running a 7.5 in backspace on the rear with a 1/4 spacer. Had to grind a little off of the outer fins on the rear calipers.
