9.12 @ 147............
..........bitches.
Air is not bad, track sucks, even with the taller gear it spins pretty bad.
If it will hook and run to the 330 like it does it will go a 00............
Shane had some oil leak issues, but we got his 11.90............
Should be one of the lasf pairs so hope the air and track gets better lol.
2nd pass

Re: 9.12 @ 147............
Damn, long day lol.
I was #2 qualifier, got my plaque and a 100 dollar bill.
Got paired with a damn monza or something with a blown injected 500" Buick motor.................who went a personal best of 8.33................figures.
Car went a 9.08 @ 147, 1.30 60' and a 5.75 1/8th, dew was coming in hard.
Nothing broke, car hauls ass, I'm 100 bucks richer lol. Ted sprayed a 150 shot on the falcon and went a 8.95 or something, way to go Ted!
It didn't seem to mind the taller gear, had to shift it at 7400 and crossed at 7400..............she likes the rpm........
Naw Dan-O, it was actually pretty boring, I need some more power man..............

Re: 9.12 @ 147............
way to go jon. i should have got me some of that money. i went 8.98 @150.57 the buick went 9.85. i can still add another 150 shot to it. can't wait to try that. i talked to the chassis guy. he thinks it's the chains were using for the travel limiters thats making it fell like it's rocking side to side. it felt like it did it less on that last pass. i think it was because it was pulling so much harder. think were going to change it out for cables. all and all it turned out to be a good weekend from the way it started out. tell tony thanks for his help on friday night.

Nice going.
I figured since the air was nice & cool around here most of this weekend, you might have had some good stuff up there as well.

I had a 4.86 gear as we were running all 1/8th mile stuff, I put a 4.57 in it this go round. think i might sell the 86 now as the 60' and 1/8 numbers were all the smae.
The air was good, 2800' which is about as good as we get here.

Re: 9.12 @ 147............
Nice job Jon Now then like Paul Harvey used to say, here's the rest of the story. That Buick you ran was a Skyhawk, which was Buick's version of the Chevy Monza. Jerry Chambers is the owner/driver and you both have something in common with each other. His TA alum. heads were ported at AM&P here in Owensboro, KY and flowed on the very same bench that your heads were flowed on. Also, Jerry's machine work was done at AM&P. Anyway, I'm proud of you!
