What did you do on your Front Engine Dragster TODAY?
JeffV8:
That's quite a difference from Florida
Supercat:
Went to the track today to do some testing for next weekend. I had been trying to get the tune up figured out . First pass( 1/8 mile track) 5.23 good enough for second quickest/fastest 139. Shut down is bumpy so I ended up pulling the chute to keep it straight.
Next pass increased air pressure in the back and put in 8 next smaller jets at the intake runners. Went out and crushed the rear tires and then hit the wheelie bar hard. Tires wadded up and then released and the car carried the front hard on the bar. Had to get off at the top of first to stay in the lane..
I'm thinking I'll add another 20-25lbs to the nose to help the balance.
Any thoughts?????
I was there by myself for the first time racing this car since 08 no wife ,kids, or crew/friends. Still a fun day just lonely
WhiskeyRebel:
I drank 3 beer in my dragster in the garage cause we have a 3 feet of snow already and my racing season is over.
Nailhead425:
I finally got our car on a scale today 1360lbs with no fuel or me in the car with my big ass in the car it'll be around 1620 race ready.

Oldschool:
I am looking at switching to Enderle injection with a Birdcatcher for 2017. I ran 5.26 in the 1/8 with a 1050 gas carb 434 cu set up. Should be a fun fast ride,which it is already . I can then sell my carb. set up and Spike radiator that I will not need.
