Closer to the 10's. (Bragging)
New personal best last night. Great air. 11.301@121.62 1.801 60'. 98.68 at mid track. If I could 60' I think I can get that 10.99.

your there if you can hook it :thumbs:
Jeepers when I first came here I thought a car in the 11s was unheard of....now it seems everyone is pushing 10s :confused:
Guess I should have built a 434 with a SC, 400 tranny, and ford 9". Hello 9s :eek:
This winters project I guess :jester
Great job! Work on the launch! :cheers:

I had the nitrous controller set to delay the nitrous .35 seconds and come in at 30 percent of 150hp and then ramp up to full 150hp in 2 seconds. Sounds complicated but it's not.

Re: Closer to the 10's. (honas)
Warning: Be careful what you wish for (better 60's). The only way you are going to get better 60's is to straps on some sticky tires. The main reason your D44 is surviving is because you are spinning the tires.
If you dead hook the slicks......kaboooooooooooom.
Good luck.

Re: Closer to the 10's. (wheelsup)
nice times, just a .02 cent on the 0 to 60 times, i pull 1.50's usually a 1.54 in my 70 nova (406, ladder bar/coil overs) and i swear thats the best part of the run be warned its hard on the car. just wondering whats your 1/8 miles times and speeds? thats all i ever run in 1/8, and i'd like to compare to get a good idea where i'd be in the 1/4. :chevy
