Well new slip on the right, I ran 11.11, picked up 2mph in the 1/8 & lost 2mph in the 1/4, when I hit high gear it just laid down, fuel problem ? trans ? will figure it out I did not look at my AFR gauge when it happened . Race weight 4050lbs drove 130 miles round trip, 4 hours one run

Looks like it left REALLY hard there Charlie, 60 ft dropped .08 compared to the 11.33 run ?

And usually anything you gain in the 60ft a guy can pretty much double off the E.T ?  (.08 X 2 = .16 off E.T), just say'in..... the 60 FT improvement off the 11.33 would suggest headed for 11.17 all other things being equal ? If the fuel hadn't crapped out it could've popped a 10 ?

That's FANTASTIC being able to DRIVE IT that far and run that fast ! WOW !

Exactly.   Most cars that run that well at the track come in on a trailer, and they certainly don't come in with the A/C blasting cold air.

I take either of those time slips.

What gas are you running?

Very nice! We are hoping for similar times out of my sons '68 Charger with 500" stroker. What tires are you using? Drag radials, I would guess. Do you know roughly how much power you're making?

325-50-15 MT Street R Radial, HP is probably close to 600, the Moroso slide comes out to 555 net crank for the day when the DA was 1750 FT 121.1 mph 4050lb

Excellent, thank you for the info. I just ordered some Hoosier 295/55-15s for our '68, since I've had really good luck with them on my Demon. Sounds like we are set up pretty similarly, and my goal for this car was 11's, so if we are anywhere close to yours, we should be pleased.

Thanks to Member PRH for steering me in the right direction, the lock nut on the regulator came loose & some other things added up to no fuel volume, pressure was 6 psi but no volume.

Nice work Charlie ! 

Fix the gremlins and it'll run high 10's for sure
