Very nice guys.
You guys get in on the dynojet and get a comparison with the results at SGS?
Think about hauling that thing to Norwalk this weekend for Fords at Summit to get some testing in?

Sounds awesome, lookin forward to some vids from the track! I've been getting progress pics for months via text message from Rob and it's good to see it finished and ready for some shake down runs.

The new drag wheel setup looks serious :awsome:

Thanks Bro!

This Saturday the 24th at Steel Valley Dragway in Smithfield OH, its a crappy little 1/8 mile track. I just want to launch the car and see how she comes off the line, not too worried about making full passes yet. Goal #1 is launching it straight!



Congrats & Best of luck at Pinks!
Thanks alot bud!:goodidea:

I used to go there a couple times a year when it was friendship raceway park. Great people just wasnt enough racers for competetion. You should be fine with the going straight part. I pretty much run the same setup and as long as you set it up how it says too they go straight. Low 10's should be about 6.20's - 6.30's in the 1/8th mile.

Parked it after Pinks in 2010 and yanked the stick and now I got a built C-4 laying there waiting to go in. I took 2011 off from racing but im gonna get back into it this winter and have the new combo ready to test in spring 2012.

Car will definitely be heading back to Mike at Wolfpack Speed before next season starts for some tweaks!

C4 is the way to go. I have been wanting to get that boat anchor AOD out of my car but just dont have the money right now.

Who did you go with for the C4?

Who did you go with for the C4?

Its a PA C-4 fully rollerized & upgraded with transbrake. Also got a UCC (Lenny) 8" 5500 stall converter to run N/A and then a UCC 9.5" 4200 stall to run on the juice when I decide to throw some at it.

I got a 300 hp kit to throw on it now but I might save & go with a Induction Solutions direct port kit....? Not sure yet.

Lenny feels the car will go 10.30-10.50 NA with the 8" converter and well into the 9's once I throw a little nitrous at it (150 shot).

Boring??? that may be a good arguement... 11's with a stick or 10's with an auto. Some may think going faster might trump shifting gears and going slower.
