Ohio Valley 3/20

Hey guys, here's a little vid I found from Sat. Didn't even know the guy was taking it.
Definitety need some rear suspension work. It isn't squatting very good. That pass was only my second on that track. 1.47 60ft, 6.53 at 106.
Two weeks ago at the bend I had 1.40 60's and ran a 6.41, .42 , .43 in that order.
There is a 6.50 class there this year that I plan to try to follow with both cars. I'm putting my brother in the white car.

what tire pressure? do you have an antiroll on the rear sus?

looks good ...definetly got some twisting going on and sure is wrapping up them sidewalls

About 10 1/2 before burnout, Antiroll is next to go on. Converter is also a little to tight. Only leaving at about 4400 or so. It was coming up more with the 1.40 60's.

It bounced and spun it's ass off. I wish I had slow motion to look at.

Yes , but we need to get to the track together to do it...............

Just give me a few days heads up when it would be good for you, and where.

Scott what type shocks and springs are you running. Tire size and type too. so BG is running a 6.50 class?

Hey, what's up? The rears are QA1, not too sure what to put them on. Springs are 4 cyl cut. M/T 28.5x10.5.
Not BG, Ohio Valley is. Went up there with a buddy, Joel Greathouse, to test. I have Strange adjustables on the front, but not too sure where to put them either. Until now, I have never had adjustable shocks or struts.
It's all new to me.

Scott,

The Valley just laid down new concrete for 660' so maybe it's a little green? Let me know the next time you go, I live in Shelbyville, not too far from the Valley.

I tried to text you Friday night to see if you knew if they were going to be open and to see if maybe you were going. U planning to run anything there this year.
I plan to run the 6.50 index. Hope to make all of them.

Hey Bud when is the next time you are going to the track? I am running the strange 10 way adjustable front and rear and Gt rear springs and an anti roll bar with Granatelli double adjustable uppers and lakewood lowers front has stock k member and 4cyl springs . I am running the same size tire as you. My best 60ft is a 1.42 on drag radials. I would like for mine to be in the mid 1.30s I can 't remember what I have mine set on but I can check for you if this helps any. I figure my 60ft times are not that good because of the smaller motor stock k member and drag radials? good luck with it

Let me know what your settings are, that would be great. Hope to go next Sat. with the new toy. Traded my roller I had for sale for a 95 cobra with a 408 windsor / c-4 setup. It will be the first time out with it.

Scott sorry I left you Hanging I haven't had a chance to get back on here or get those settings I will try and do that this week . Have you had the Cobra to the track ?

Hey, not yet. Hope to make it Sat. if the rain holds off. When you coming? You planning to go to the Bash this year?
