I shared one of these before but figured I would post again cause I love to watch myself.  :icon_smile_big: Both of these videos were taken last year by my daughter at Brainerd MN.  The first one was the first trip down the track with my 440.



I ran in the 13's this day.




Ran a 12.80 this time!
(Some may notice the top is black in the second video, it is the same car, I just dyed my top black midway through last summer.)

Well the first race was actually just a test and tune practice run and he crossed the line first.  The second run was last year at Muscle Car Shootout at Brainerd International Raceway.  He was dialed in at 12:12 I think and i was dialed in at 12:90, we both broke out but I broke out worse.  We crossed the finish line neck and neck but he won cause I broke out worse than he did.  It is a real bummer because I was going to dial in at 12:80 because the day before in a practice run I ran a 12:90 and crossed the line sputtering because my fuel filter was plugging.  I bought a new larger filter that next morning and something told me I would run faster than a 12:90 with more fuel but I didn't listen to the message.  I ran a 12:80 flat.  He ran like a 12:15 or so and won basically by default.  Oh well next year.....

I would comment on how nice the black top looks but I just can't get over how nice the front bumper looks.  ;) ;D

That is one sweet 73'  As you can see in my avatar I own a 74' SE.  I really dig your car and the setup.  I am going after a very similar look with a hood scoop go wing and front spoiler.  It looks really sharp on your car.  Can you post of pm me a little more info on your complete setup.  I went to your site and got some of the info.  But what stall are you running?  Suspension set up in the front and rear?  Anything special there?    I would like to get my car into the high 12's.  And need to know what I need to do to get it there.  And since you are already there with almost the exact same car.  I though you might be the perfect one to ask.

Great videos,The sound of a big block gives me goose bumps!! :yesnod:
Earth. Even the word sounded strange to me now... unfamiliar. How long had I been gone? How long had I been back? Did it matter? I tried to find the rhythm of the world where I used to live. I followed the current. I was silent, attentive, I made a conscious effort to smile, nod, stand, and perform the millions of gestures that constitute life on earth. I studied these gestures until they became reflexes again. But I was haunted by the idea that I remembered her wrong -Solaris
