    New personal Best of 10.71 @ 126.8 in my Farm Truck

    First run was right after we got there. Still in the mid 80's for outside temps. Didn't run it long enough to let the KC cool the water. I was just going out to see how well the new slicks would hold. Well it came off the line with a leap that felt like the front end was up. Pulled pretty good but was fading at the top. Saw 10.92 on the board as I went by. The IC water temps were at 115 so I know the IAT2 temps were pulling timing. First run was a 1.55 60' with a 10.92 @ 123. But this was just a test the slicks run.

    Pulled into the pits and let it sit for a while until the air temps cooled off and then let the KC cool the water down to 58*. Felt like it spun just a bit. End result was a 1.59 60' with a 10.71 @ 126.8. Whoo Hoo

    Now it's time to go get the race tune. I am just running on the street tune with a couple degrees of timing added and race gas. Both passes were running at 10.8 A/F so it is a little rich but I like it that way since I haven't been to the dyno for an actual race tune.

    Thanks Shane, And as usual I didn't just creep into the next level. When I was trying for the 12's I was stuck at 13.06 and the did a little work and came back and ran a 12.20. When I was trying to get into the 11s, I was stuck at the 12.06 and then did a little work and came in with an 11.5. Well I have been stuck at the 11.08 for a while. Did a little work and came back and ran a 10.71. I was not expecting that much of a jump into the 10s as I know it gets harder with each barrier. But I'll take it :-)

    Thanks. That was one heck of a ride. Sure felt good with it pulling hard all the way down the track.

    So, when are the wild mods going to start on your L'? I have a good deal on a set of slicks and skinnies :-)

    Wildbill,
    Were you asking for vids? All I have is a video of AZHARLEY and me running but his kid shot the vid so it was focused on Dave's L and kind of small. There is another red truck right on the edge of a 10 second run, he just needs to make it stick at the line. He ran 11.17, me 10.71

    haha. i wish i could mod my truck like that. but, its not likely. its the daily driver. so, as long as she looks good and is up to snuff on matinence, i am one happy camper. the cobra is basically going to show and cruise duty. the 79 coupe i bought will be becoming the race car. though, i still wanna go out and get a 13 second slip with the truck.

    haha. you'd think so right? but no, as of now its gray. and will likely be that way for awhile. i had thought about going blue with it, but likely will just do something simple like a satin black or something of the like.

    and that looks like one nice hotrod. something tells me that wouldn't fit in my budget at all though...
