Black paint weighs more, that's why Matt and Dave cannot get into the 7's. All I am going to do is have a different colored car and hopefully drop 1 second off my ET.

The Cobra will slowly go back to stock when time permits. I'll let the wife drive it around if she wants. Back into the 13's for that car. Unless I build a screamer stroked 302 for it.

Looks like you better order up a wheelie bar kit... and a case of Depends.

[bubba]

Looks good... trying to knock Dave down a notch?

Bill, what was the race weight on the orange car? :icon_scratch:

I am sure they still have a few tricks up their sleeves yet too. I'll have the excuse of drag radials and stock suspension if I cannot catch up.

The class it was in was minimum 3000 lbs. That was a 302 with blower though.

I'll see what is in the car. If I remeber correctly I think he pulled it. Probably would have been for a glide anyways. I let you know, I will be picking it up tomorrow couple hours south of St. Cloud.

yeah, getting a car with a reasonable race weight is going to be a huge step up.

[Grr]

Bill was that a renegade car? I say just take the turbos off the black car and put a 460 with a 106mm in the orange car! That motor has to be in need or a check/refresh anyway by now dont you think?

632 BBC with a F3R Procharger & glide.

Shoot for 2000 rwhp.

There's another $20,000+. Just going to put new rings, valve springs and some better rods in it, we'll see how it sounds spinning it to 8,000 rpm's

Shit, SBF are in the 6's now with drag radials. Those big blocks just weigh more anyways. Boat anchors.:icon_rabbit:

In it's new home now.
