Sounds like something NHRA tech would do to a Mopar racer ! On that note a close friend of mine races a 57 Corvette he bought it awhile ago from a guy that raced it for over 40 years it now has a 383 SBC and runs mid 11s , he was informed late last year that because it has a " removable " hard...

Congrats !!! great Win even with the B.S.

Sweet !!! even better with a small block and 904 !!!

Stock is ran on a full tree , the Super Classes are on a pro tree .. I love the pro tree ! , its pretty much all I do anymore

Good Luck !! as a racer for over 35 years I have many times considered purchasing a weather station / E.T. predictor . I watch several of my competitors using them and they always seem to be off by a few on their dials missing the dial by a few tenths . Could be in their programming ...

Congrats !!! great feeling paying your house off ! We did a few years ago ,we are always moving money around from bank to bank looking for the best rate. Our main bank always has terrible rates so we don't keep much there. I'm just not looking forward to being forced to start taking money from...

Sorry to hear about that John .. so they were mad that you beat them ? Maybe they should look at their own driving : with a red light and a 247 its not your fault .. talk about a sore loser. NHRA doesn't mess around or tolerate any bad behavior .. at the Division One Bracket Finals a few years...

I have had my trailer for 22 years now and just added winch a few years ago , ( my wife got tired of helping me push the car in and out when it broke so she bought it for me ) my trailer was in the shop for brakes and bearings recently and I had them hook the trailer plug to the winch battery so...

Good job John !!! Good Luck !!!

Bench seat with a T/A Cheetah shifter .. for reference.... btw ..lever on side of the shifter is a starting line rpm controller

I can understand tinting to keep the car cooler, but I have always wondered wouldn't it make it more difficult to see your opponent especially when racing at night ? and if the other car is painted a dark color ? I saw a guy thrown out of the NED Bracket finals for tinted windows or that was the...

Carlisle is Mopar heaven !!! South Mountains owner " Mountain Mike " is a great guy! they really make you feel welcome plus he's a Mopar guy .

Very true .. I attend every Mopar Atlantic Nats at Englishtown all 31 or so of them except a few that were rained out .. I used to go Friday night and stay until Sunday getting a hotel room despite only living 50 miles / an hour away . We used to have a lot of fun !! at least there it was...

Wow ! 9.60s is impressive ! the best I ran was 11.34 with my ported J heads: 2.02 valves, 9 1/2 to 1 compression 20 over 340 , 557 lift Mopar purple shaft cam , 273 rockers , Victor intake , 750 dp carb , 1 7/8 headers in my 3150 lb. 68 Dart.. motor had a lot of runs on it and broke a rod ...

I Want to try and make Norwalk some day , sure looks like a fun meet ! It would be a hike from North Jersey though. I try every year by posting to on a few Mopar websites about my local track Island Dragway Mopar at the Patch race to get attendance up and every year and we only get few Mopars ...

My local track Island Dragway has been operated by a member of the founding family since it opened in 1960 , however the third generation has a different managing style resulting in the exit of some long time racers and good employees . I myself cut back on my racing there last year even gave...

10.40 @124 1.40 60 ft. Footbraking on S/S springs

Traction bars work well on my D150 as they eliminated the wheel hop .( 15.0 E.T.s / low 2.00 60 fts ) My 68 Dart race car had S/S springs for years but I switched to Cal Tracs and my 60 ft consistency improved .

A friend of mine runs a brand x car with an air shifter and has an onboard compressor in the car , I have seen several cars with them . I also saw recently that Biondo Race Products now offers an onboard compressor setup. This would eliminate the having to worry about full CO2 bottles. I...

Yes .. like John said :I have a piece of diamond plate under the front and rear tires , when I ordered my trailer I also added the front upper cabinet it really comes in handy .

Congrats on your new trailer !!! I was going to buy a new trailer to replace my 2001 Haulmark but decided to just put some money in it ( needs a new axle , bearings and brakes ) . I paid $5200 for it in 2001 a new one is close to $14,000 and from doing some research I found the quality of a...

Indy off my 360-1 headed 408.. not a lot of spring pressure or ran at high RPM ...theres a reason Indy no longer offers them . When I spoke to them they suggested T&D of Harlan Sharp as a replacement .. I have since sold the motor

I was looking in to one a few years ago and was told by Biondo Race Products that it can't be done with the Cheetah Shifter because of the way the shifter works and the fact you have top move the shifter over when going into third. This might only be on the reverse pattern valve body and for...

Luckily my local track Island Dragway is going strong... being ran by the third generation of the original owners ... its been my home track for the last 40 or so years ... its about...

Is Keystone having a Mopar race this year ? I went to two of the Chrysler Classic races they had years ago and am considering a trip to the area again. I am originally from Pittsburgh : born there (in Bellevue 1954 ) and graduated high school ( North Hills H.S. 1972 ) there and my parents are...

I have been running 904s for years behind my mid 500 hp range small blocks doing a 2nd gear only burnout, only two failures in 40 years mainly due to my own fault ( mis aligned shifter lever ) my friends keep trying to talk me into a power glide especially now that most racing around me is 1/8...
