djracers thread got me thinking, "Who else races on here?" So let's see some pics!

bagged_gmc · 11-24-2006, 01:30 PM

That's Candy Green/Candy white. These are from the primer stage...Yes people, we DO spray CANDY RED for guide coat! Chip Foose, eat your heart out!

Specs:
1983 S-10 Blazer
482 BBC/Powerglide
5500 Stall
NHRA Certified Chassis to....6.90 I believe
Fastest time was 6.18, no nitrous. Have a probelm though. We are only leaving at 3500...if we left anywhere near our stall....Hmmm can you say high 5's on motor...Woot Woot

LUV2XCLR8 · 11-26-2006, 08:38 AM

I used to, the weekend warrior run what ya brung thingy, but not serious
like you guys are, I did however until I sold it, reduced my ET's in the 1/8
by over a second, & got my light's down to the .505 to .510 range on std
tree, the best I could do on that dang pro tree was .468, my old ride

Malibu 496 · 11-26-2006, 10:16 AM

Here is a pic of my current car

Here is the one that is going to replace my malibu

bigjimzlll · 11-26-2006, 10:24 AM

here's mine

bagged_gmc · 11-26-2006, 12:41 PM

all nice rides, guys!

**Ron 586** · 11-26-2006, 02:49 PM

My toy is a 1972 Nova. It is powered by a 468 BB Chevy. The next pictures show what's left of my turbo 350 transmission. I run 14/32 slicks with a 9" ford with 5:14 gears. Luv2xclr8 shot a vidio of the car and it shows it breaking in the burnout box throwing sparks. I didn't hear or feel anything so I staged and made a full pass and drove it back to the trailer under its own power. Do you think I should use JB weld or superglue???

bagged_gmc · 11-26-2006, 03:12 PM

Yiiiiikes!

my67C10 · 11-26-2006, 03:29 PM

diggertodd · 11-26-2006, 04:29 PM

Think my hand jesture says it all...

best is a 7.88 in the quarter - still love my C-10 too...

hotrod 80 · 11-26-2006, 08:16 PM
