Title: Drag week registration is now open!
Post by: AlanCasida on March 15, 2012, 05:15:57 PM

I'm in.  ;D It is my plan to take my 66 Galaxie with either the 460 in it or possibly a 521, which I have about 95% of the parts for.

Alan, have you ever ran it and got an ET? Thanks.

I made a few passes last year at the All Ford show at Tulsa and ran some 13.60s. That was with fairly mild 460 PI motor, a C6 and 3.70 gears on drag radials. Right now I have the same motor but with a TKO 600 and 4.11 gears. I won't be a "competitor" at drag week, I'll be more of a "participant" since I have no real chance of winning. I just want to be respectable and most importantly, have a good time. I am hoping to pick up at least a second by Sept.
