That was a ford fairline, IIRC, that ran in the mid 11's.
It's not the resolution that's low (The video I pulled it from is a 1MP video), it's the fact that we're moving, and that's why everything's blurry, although the cars came out pretty clear...gives it kinda a cool effect.

It looks like a Falcon, not a Fairlane.

Cool pic Tim! Also, is your front bumper tweaked or crooked?

My bad, falcon. Had a brainfart. Yes, my bumper is tweaked, but it was free. The other bumper I had on there had a HUGE dent, and since my friend swapped his truck to a front roll pan, he gave me his bumper...it's not perfect, but it's a lot better than what was on their.
Yeah, me and my friends go to Sac all the time. Just look for cars that have a Quarter Mile Club sticker on them.

Out of curiosity, Tim, how fast is your truck running? What is your combo? My brother has a '78 GMC Sierra SWB that came factory with the "Heavy Half" package that runs 12.40's w/ a pump gas 350. I used to own the truck, and I wish I had never sold it!! Here's few shots of it, and a link to our website.

That's a SLICK truck man! My combo is the GM Goodwrench 350, with Edelbrock Performer Intake/Holley 600/Headers & Mandrel Bent Dual 2½" Exhaust.
I'm hoping that with the new Vortec Combo and a set of drag radials, to go into the 12's.

Sorry, my best run was 16.0@86mph, with a 2.5 60', literally not pressing the gas until half track.

Cool Thanks Tim. It will be fun to see what your future mods do for this. It is nice to have a baseline and work with from there.
