I finally broke something!! after 4 years of slowly working down the 60’, ET and up on the MPH.
Best to date is 11.44@114 with a 10” TA 3500 tight. Best 60’ was a wheels just getting up 1.60. Not content, I finally got around to swapping in a 9-1/2” FTI 4000 hard hit for just a little bit more oomph and first run today with a lame burnout still netted a dead hooking 60’ of 1.54.
Back out for a second run, excellent burnout and it was a “hard hit” alright! Wheels up bigger than ever and “Bang”!! Pooped out the driveshaft. Seems I’ve exceeded the durability of certain factory parts. Couldn’t help but think of his great tune:
Time to upgrade and re-enforce.
