Fun day drag racing at Atco. I put drag racing on the back burner for many years and concentrated on road racing and kart racing but i had a blast and met some new peeps.
M&H 26x11.5 slicks on stock TA 16x8 wheels, Aired them up to 30 psi in hopes of spinning and not busting the stock rear axle. but instead of spinning it Bogged each time. Powershifting. Had to shift to 4th 100 ft before finish line (stock 3.42 gears); 4.10's would have been a god send.
Perfect tune by Rob Kats and RK Tuning. Heartbreaker dyno graph attached.
Previous best was 12.7 @ 115 from last year (due to crap tune) so happy for these times and mph is solid.
Stock 241 heads but 92mm intake and mild cam (.588/.595, 228/232), 1 7/8 speed engineering headers and 3" Y pipe, stock cat-back/muffler (1998 only single tip).
Bilstein rear shocks replaced my busted OEM koni double adjustables.
Car weighed 3275 lbs on their scales without driver and minus front seat and spare/jack.
With a real launch, probably could have gotten 11.7.
With 4.10 gears, maybe 11.5
With ported heads, 10.99
Dare to dream
