1985 Mustang HB 331 SB Ford, 4 speed Jerico, best of 10.29@128 MPH 1.40 60 foot.
1974 F350 race car hauler 390 NP435 4 speed

Great guess's, nobody hit all the numbers ( it's like the lottery lol ) I'll let you guys decide who won. The stats were:

2.424    60'
6.973    330'
10.727  660'
13.953   1000'
16.671    1/4 mile
83.10.     Mph

Beautiful sunny day here and 347 competitors this year. Let the insanity begin.

The big Lincoln made the video Hot Rod shared from the end of test and tune last night ( about the 6:40 mark ). I was called the " Quietest car on Drag Week" LOL.

Time to install the 6000 stall convertor in the pits, that will get those 60 foot times down.

My pass today was another 16.67. I should bracket race this thing lol. I weighed it today, 5085 lbs, with me in it. That's actually lighter than I would have guessed.
