Sorry I could find the original thread to add the video, with a bit of luck video of another run should be added soon.
combo 8.2 deck height 302 windsor, AFR 205 heads, vic jnr manifold, 11.1 comp, small street solid roller cam, 3600 convertor, 3.89 gears on 235/60/15 MT Radials. 60 ft 1.576 10.937@123.89mph 60 ft 1.591 10.954@124.11mph 60ft 1.867 11.494@123.88. Weight is with driver. As you can see turned the tyre on the rims, only on the 3rd pass (harder launch) and turned the passenger side more. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fr3Jj...e=channel_page

WSID was AWESOME action last night. Top Fuellers and funny cars, bikes, with a few near misses accident wise and a few cars/bikes running over 300kmh made for some interesting viewing..
Shame someones night was cut short after one run LOL but with a new PB of 10.86@124.5 I suppose you cannot complain : 8)

Yeah when you see how shagged the radials are you will surprised, 10.6 who knows, but car/driver definitely has more in it. Would love to see it on a slicks and some front runners.

STOUT TIMES! Especially for something that almost looks like a resto! Be interesting with new back tyres and front runners to suit. My car ran its best ever time when I matched up the front runners. Before that it used to weave down the track, after, arrow straight, cost approx. 2 tenths of a second. P.S.Are the ANDRA officials busting his chops for a rollcage yet?

Runs pretty straight as now. Were your runs with slicks or radials? Maybe as this runs radial not so affected..
Be nice to run matching rims front and back, and something bit lighter than the steel rims on front....only a matter $$$$$ LOL He has been booted from track twice, hence will now run with streeters (atleast for a long while) as the car is never getting a cage.
