    Man you should be running 11.1's when you get your 60 ft better.

    Really should be a 10 second car, but I've only made 2 full passes in it. The time posted was only .01 better than the first pass(this was the car's 2nd ever pass). And there was some problems, leaking header gasket, and ran out of gear just before 1000' and was on the rev limiter, street radials, and probably the biggest problem was/is driver inexperience . I blew that motor up on my next trip to the track. Hopefully I'll get my 10.xx time slip next year.

    You need a higher stall convertor to let the engine get more RPMs at the start. That will bring your 60' times down and total time down. How tall of tire are you using? Drag slicks?
