Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
Well, The converter was perfect. I had them tighten it up 300 rpm. Should be at 5800 rpm now. The tranny is still at the shop. We found one of the cooler lines (braided AN) was laying on a header. I kind of wish they had found something wrong with the converter.

Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
Great shots...Have you tried stiff side wall slicks? I think they would sure help...would help reaction times for sure.

Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
I run tubes in mine. Just some cheap $9.00/ tube tire store specials, not the natural rubber expensive deals. I've never had any trouble with them, and the tires don't loose any air, even after sitting for a while.

Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
Tubeless for me with bolt in stems!
I have been at the track playing today! I can't run 6.00 with the convertor that's in it right now so I'm running on the motor in the 7.00 class! I made 1 all out 1/8 mile pass went 6.665! I switched to shifting on time instead of rpm and went 6.961 @100 mph! My first qualifying pass was a 7.008! I wasn't happy with my lights (.4 Pro tree) so I made a couple of changes and dep staged and went .407 on the tree and 6.966! Wish me Luck I have some stiff Competition tomorrow!

Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
Well I went out third round some ahole decided I needed him to line me up on the starting line and screwed up my concentration and I forgot to put it in first gear so of couse the trans brake didn't work! I helped some guys from Texas with a nice 10.5 outlaw car ( I'm the one in the purple hoosier shirt on the starting line) and I'm posting some other nice pics even one furd!

Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
Looking good, too bad about the dip that thought you needed a pit crew all of a sudden, should have ran him over. Was it cold out, I see you warming your ears? I take it that the Furd with the Bowtie in the grill was running chevy power. You get your trailer all set up? post up some pics of it when you get a chance.
Monty.
