Ran last weekend at the NMRA Gateway Rumble with the new 15:1 363. Had to work through a whole bunch of issues and only made two passes. 1st pass off the trailer 8.99 at 150.4, the next day went 8.97 at 151.1. Pissed off the starter in the video (apparently there are no across the line burnouts...
Considering in September of 1993 I drove off the Anderson Ford lot with 3.73 gears, Dynomax cat back, subframe connectors welded in, a hurst shifter, and larger MAF, that really hasn't been an issue for me LOL. But I get it.
Doesn't even seem possible it has been almost 3 years since I got the car down the track. Got to an 1/8th mile track a couple of weeks ago. I got 3 runs in. Off the trailer it went 5.789 @ 121.93 and spun pretty bad with a 1.38 60-ft. Best one was the 2nd pass with a 5.654 @ 121.77 and a 1.273...
Go easy on my video editing skills folks.
I put together a couple minute summary of this year at the track.

Hope you enjoy it.

First full pass with the new GForce trans last Friday. Launched at 6,500. Shifted at 9,200.
Tires spun with a 1.38 60-ft but she went a 9.55 at 139.4.
I think there is 2, maybe 3 more tenths in here once I figure out the clutch.
Enjoy!

I thought I would share some video of first outing to track this year and an update to the Cobra I will be working on this weekend.
Went to the track for the first time on May 1st (Gateway Raceway Park). Here is a pic at launch.
This was only second time out with the new adjustable...
The Gateway International Raceway track photographer (Bret Kepner) sent me a disk from my track outings from 2008 and 2009.
The pics came out really, really nice, so I made a slideshow. Hope you all enjoy.
