Here is what I ran at the E-town Ford event.....
60ft 1.559
330 4.648
1/8 7.283
MPH 93.09
1000 9.558
1/4 11.487
MPH 116.48
Here is what was on the car...
1. 3-inch crank pulley
2. No powersteering
3. Cold-air through the headlight
4. Hoosier 26x11.50 Quick Time Pros DOT (26x10 measured)
5. 3110 lbs
Is this what the pushrods need?:confused: :confused:
Looks like a start with that run. Good E.T. for that mph.That looks good on paper for some rules thoughts............

Jonathon,
Congrats.
Your changes look simple without a big increase in cost.

Thats what happens when you run out of gear at 1000'.:D
Nice runs Jonathan... I will be trying something simular this weekend at "Smack Down".

For what it's worth, If NMRA gave the lighter front end parts and maybe an intake to the Fox bodies I'd reconsider running some races next year.
I did run spec fuel and other than short belting and tires the rest of the car is Factory legal. My thinking is if my car can dip into the 11's I'd give it a try. As it stands now there is such a large gap between me and the top that it is not fiscally responsible to spend bucks traveling to get whooped. Now I'm not saying that I would be competitive, but a respectable showing is all I'd want. I know of 3 cars in NE that would be able to consistantly run 11.8-11.9 with these changes. We would not threaten the top runners, but would fill the lanes and isn't that the goal? To get as many participants as possible.

Still about a tenth off what a NMRA legal 4-valve can run but close enough to make it worth going to some races.
