Went drag racing today!!!!
Went up to New England Dragway today to do some racing. They only timed the 1/8 mile all day cus there was something not right with the rest of the track so no 1/4 mile times unfortunatly. I had never been racing and I have never had so much fun in my entire life. My best run of the day was 10.797 @ 62.92mph which I was happy with considering I weighed in on the scale at 4964lbs. My 60' time was 2.319s. I was also happy becuse I consistantly beat a 2003 Chevy Silverado which i thought was cool. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks

You beat a new Silverado? Wow! That's awesome, those things are quick. 4.10 gears must help alot...this summer I wanna try out the track here, its only 1/8 mile.
Those are some good times ya got there tho...

Thanks for all the compliments. I could not hook off the line to save my life but im hoping the posi will help with that. And yes the look on that guys face with the new silverado was priceless as were the cheers from the grandstand.

Wish it was me! I haven't been on the dragstrip for years. I'm sure my '80 k-20/500 cad, TH400 switch-pitch & 4.10's would do decent but I won't try it untill I put in a posi. I'm sure if I nailed the gas off the line now all I would do is put on a
