Wow, that is a nasty fish there!!!
I just started racing last year when I bought my fish. Started with a 340 (8.5 1/8th), then the stroker (see below). Now looking to get a full bars car, hopefully a Demon to play with while the fish gets bodywork and interior done. Will start with the stroker then probably move to a 500 if I get the car I am looking at cause it has no inner fenders and motor plate mount. Local track is 1/8 and I would like to get into mid 6's with the big block.
Cool that your first pass was with a car that would run low 9s...musta been really scary. I remember my first night at the track and all I wanted to do was keep it out of the wall - that first pass is indeed very nerve wracking.
So... What does it take to get 700+ from a 500? What does it take to get a NHRA license?
