Well yesterday was a big day, first time for me every hitting the track in my car. I'm still on Griggs Racing suspension (soon to be changed out). The car is making 860/750 on 16psi. Weight is low I think. Probably in the low low 3300 to mid 3250 range without a driver..

Custom built stock stroke 281ci. 10:1 compression engine
Foxlake stg3 heads
Accufab cams
kooks LT's 3" exhaust dumped
T56 Magnum, RXT clutch
Vortech JT-Trim at 16 psi (out of blower at 6400rpm)
Custom air to air
Custom intake setup
Holley Dominator ECU (traction control turned off)
E85, Weldon fuel system

My first pass every without going WOT in 1st or 2nd went as follows
2.90 60ft
12.77@129mph

My 2nd pass was a 2.1 60ft and I was moving but lost cam sync in 2nd so aborted the run

3rd pass we needed a good datalog so I gave the keys to Drew@AED to make the pass. If anyone wanted to hear a modular at 8400rpm here's your chance lol..
1.96 60ft
10.4@144mph

I need a lot more seat time, as the power comes on very strong and is hard to focus actually. Looking forward to more drag racing, changing the suspension, and running a 9.9@150mph without adding anymore power.. It's got it in it that's for sure.. Just gotta get it there.. Click my build thread for more pics of the car.

Your build is in inspiration. Every time I see yours makes me want to finish mine. That mph makes me happy.

First time at the track with the setup, right? So you’re still learning it. You’ll soon be “one with the car” and see a nice improvement in time and speed. Sounds wicked!

Thanks guys. Yea first time at the strip in it. I’m a road racing guy lol. Trying out drag racing as I can’t afford road racing anymore. It’s a lot of fun and I look forward to improving :)
