Is there going to be a Copperstate night of racing before the upcoming car show? I thought I remembered hearing 3/23 @ Firebird, but now can't find anything about it.

Just got to find out today and to put it all together...Need to find someone to pull the trailer and things like that.. My friend who has a 57 Pick up that does a besst 8.87 said the track last week was better than he has seen it in a long time and was very good to run on.... Just FYI.

hmmm.....well, if it can happen this friday (decent track prep), maybe i might trust it. otherwise, since i have been going to firebird its been a waste of my money and gas....

Get some slicks or ET streets and then judge the prep.

1.72

Not bad.

That was about the best I could get out of drag radials.

to be honest, i am happy with it. that was one hell of a pull for me. and till i get more power, i don't think it will get too much lower. and that was alos launching the car at 3 k, so i have room for improvement.

I can tell you if we bolt my 28" slicks on your car and you leave at 6000 you will pull at least a high 1.5

That will be a super pull. LOL
