Default Drag strip outing.

I'm finally going to get my old Coronet to the strip tomorrow to see what it's going to run. I'm so psyched, I couldn't wait to post something. [sm=icon_rock.gif]

Geussing. Somewhere in the high 13's minimum according to the calcs. I've messed with using my RWHP and vehicle weight. I know the RWHp is better now since I have the jetting and timing dialed in.

OK. Here's the deal.
RUN 1-------------RUN2-----------------RUN3

ET
13.6223-------13.3465---------------13.5009

1/4 MPH
100.29--------102.74------------------100.13

Won all three. The first I beat a toyota Supra, the second was my buddy Chad who was having some major trouble, and the last race was a 5.0L mustang. I had to come from behind on the Ford and Toyota. I broke something in the ignition on the last run just as we hit the line. Needless to say, the MUstang guy was pissed.
