After 3 weekends in a row of rainouts, we were finally able to race at Xtreme Raceway Park in Trumbul Texas (South of Dallas) We didn't get the race completely in though as the rain stopped us with 4 cars left in no box and 14 in box. I made it to the final 4 due to the other guy turning it red...

UPDATE: I made a couple of passes tonight and when I went to scan my time slips it said I had to pay the registration fee to scan time slips from now on. I guess they let me do a few free ones to get me interested. No thanks.

I'm racing this weekend and will see how it does fetching weather data from the track location.

I ran 10w30 in my race motor for years, then I was told by BES in Indiana that I should be running 10w40. I'm trying Lucas hot rod oil 10w40 on my current build. It's cheaper than racing oil and has a very high zinc content. It's on about the 4th oil change and so far things are looking good...

Can you still get Timken bearings?

The app is free as far as I can tell. If you want it to predict your et's you have to pay for it.

Do you have ez lube hubs? Every video I watched said it took about 1 tube for every hub. The idea is to completely replace the old grease so you keep pumping until you get all of the old grease out.

I downloaded this and fiddled with it a little. I like that you can just take a picture of your time slip and it fills in all of the data. Haven't tried it at the track but apparently if you scan your time slip just after the pass if will fill in weather conditions if you tell it where you are.

I realized the other day that I haven't greased the axles on my race trailer in 2 years, so I went and bought 5 tubes and got it done today. I put maybe 5000 miles a year on this trailer. 3 of the 4 were a little loose (you could move the nut by hand) so I tightened them until the brake drum...

You should not need an adapter to use a 727. A small block 727 will bolt right up to the 5.7 hemi. You will need a special flex plate to account for the difference from the crank to the converter.

Just saw a disturbing video about city council changing zoning laws to allow housing right up next to the track property at Bradenton. I hope this isn't true, but we all know what happens when developers get cities to change zoning laws and build residential right next to a dragstrip.

We Well darn.

I went for the jacket.

Try Speedway motors in Lincoln Nebraska.

Every now and then even a blind hog finds an acorn! Texas Muscle Car Club Challenge is a drag racing series around the Dallas area but last night we raced at Little River Dragway outside of Temple Texas. I.managed to take the win in "Super Pro", a footbrake class for 6.99 and faster. I could...

You'd better put the wheelie bars back on it before you go to tnt! You're gonna need them!

Only consider buying it if you plan on racing it. Too much done to it already to try to resell as a street car.

IHRA takes about 2 weeks to get your real license, but if you renew online you can print out a paper temporary right away.

Should be good to 8000rpm.

I'll be there all weekend starting with Friday. I have a TMCCC race Sunday, so I'll look for you.

Do you plan on going to the track Friday or Sunday?

I think you have me beat there! :thumbsup:

1. New hood hinges and reinstalled hood 2. Still working on EFI tuning, but improved over last year. In general have gained .1 in ET 3. Chassis tuning changes and retarded timing in attempt to keep from spinning at tracks with bad prep like Little River. 4. Added LED headlights, mainly for...

Should be OK on Sunday. Are you coming to the track? I plan to be there.

I don't think so, he didn't tell me what was under the hood and I didn't press him about it, but at 5.80 it's definitely doing what it was built for!
