I think this is a first, especially with only two mods that count, the Blackwing and the Vig T/C, is this an aberration?????? :lol:

Well, for one, I do not have a scanner. I guess I could take a digital picture of it and send it to you. My digital camera is over at my son's house. I would have to have my son post it on the forum as I do not know how.

Don't sweat it.... we are too old to Bs anyone, right!
Nice run my friend!

I know Bruce (who I know is a cool guy as well) was just wanting to see the timeslips and he wasn't saying that he didn't believe him, he even said it in his posts. Everything is fine. :cheers:
Thanks 2001 Red Coupe Bandit..... for comming to my aid in this dangerous world. There are a lot of aligators out here yes.
And Roger, when are you comming to So. Cal., we can line up together at Carlsbad Drag Raceway. Next time you get a vacation, stop over.

Hang out with us.... we can light up a Stogie or two!

If I read your sig correctly, you have 313 HP, 328 TQ :confused:

Are you sure this is an accurate track??


If you add my mods, you will be running 10.9?

Yes, the hp/tq numbers are correct (as far as I know). In fact, the last time I dyno'd it at Speedtek in December, it was a few hp/tq lower than the 21st Century dyno day in the fall (which were lower than Speedtek's!). So, I put some faith in dyno numbers, but the most faith in the track results!

As far as Hallsville being a fast track, it definitely is not of the same caliber as Ennis. It is all asphalt and has a dip at 1/2 track. But, because I was able to predict with my DENSITY program pretty much dead on with what I ran that day, I think it is a reliable track. Just too dog gone far to travel to on a weekly basis!

That being said, I will probably go there again in the near future. I may tow the car down on my new trailer or drive it. I have never towed at all, so doing an inaugural tow for 120 miles may be asking too much. I just hate to drive all that distance on the DR’s and have one of them go flat.

Bruce, thanks for posting the slip. I will have to learn how to do that.

Also, Gary, let’s get that car up with the mods and hit the track while it is still cool!
