Yeah traction was an issue for everyone. We shook the tires so hard our first pass that my passenger door popped off the hindge and broke a weld on my fuel shut off lever. Very very violent shake. I normally power threw it and try and get back on top of the tire but not this time. It was chassis breaking shake. Had to lift every pass.


We have already been 192mph and that is faster than any diesel with doors. Only thing faster are 4 of the rails. Records will be ours in prostock if we can get everything to work twice at a nhrda race.

we have 3 1/8 mile passes that I had to lift on. Wouldn't say we have it figured out to go rounds just yet LOL


But thanks we are getting close for sure!

That is an accomplishment!
What are the rails running-mid 7s? With a third less weight?

Yeah, I'm not sure what was up with the track. It's my home track and I've never had issues like that there. I got squirrely a few times too.

Rails are in the 6s

We have been 7.600@192. With a close 60'.

Current pro stock record is held by wade moody 7.46@185

I realized what I typed after I posted, lol.
.15 is a ways to go on the et, but you've got the speed out the back! Bit of tinkering on the chassis, you should be able to get the time down?

The 7.60 pass was with a 1.37 60" we have been 1.24 and should be in he 1.1 range. Our mph should be a 7.2-7.3 range. So I think all it will take is a good pass. Slow 60' really hurts your ET. .20-.40 off the 1/4 for ever .10 off the 60'.

Practice, and a bunch of work, lol. Little luck, and they'll be chasing you.
Anything at all left in the suspension to settle the car down?
