My brother and I just made it before it sold out. Making it in is definitely going to give me the motivation to getting my stuff running properly again. It's been sittin' waaaaay too long. Will be leaving from western Pa if anyone wants to meet up. Lee

That's my intentions. I've long hauled a Power Tour so the driving distance isn't an issue. I just need to get this thing back to looking more presentable. I'm pretty much gonna have to run in daily driver. I'd look like a snail in one of those big block classes.

I'm not going this year, but what does your car normally run? The slowest in BB/NA Street Race will probably be around mid-high 12's.

I ran BB/NA street race last year and had no idea I would finish the week in second. It's drag week, ANYTHING can happen!

Are you planning on running DD with Mike or playing the odds in BB NA?


Lee: what does your Mustang normally run? Drag Week is addictive, don't say you were not warned!

I'm well aware of Drag Week being addictive. I went w/ my brother in '09 and '10. I got hooked and have been waiting for it to return closer to to me. I was hoping by the time it did my car would be ready. Unfortunately, I'm gonna be thrashing all summer. My best is 11.74 on the motor, but usually 11.90's-12.00. Spraying it a little I've gone 10.95 but I don't think I want to use it during Drag Week. That stuff has been big time inconsistent for me. I've messed w/ it over 3 seasons and can't figure it out. My luck, it'll perform flawless so I turn in the good N2O slip to them on Mon I won't run another good one all week.


Quick 52, is your name Dale and is your truck purple? If so, we've met before. My brother has a hot rod black '84 GMC truck w/ a 455 Olds that his wife drives.

BigBlockRanger: your username threw me off. You have a Beetlejuice avatar on bangshift.com right? I'm a slow learner sometimes. Nice job on that car.

Yes that is me. Thanks. It's been a super fun car to play with and learn. Smile

I'm sitting this year out but will probably do it again in 2014 unless it is waaaaay East or waaay North.
