I am running 386 RWHP and 2500 lbs. I am sure I can get it into the mid 11's with a little work. Have installed a front line lock but not tested at the track yet.

You and me both, hitting the links in a few myself.

Just got out of the sport this year, have been racing on the track, and street I'll admit, before I even had a license. This was my last project, 01 z28, stock internals except for a cam, so a true "cam only" car. Ran 11.33 @ 118 1.54 60' at +2400 DA, think it would've eventually ran 10.9s on a cleaner pass in perfect air. 420whp & 3320lb raceweight, full interior street car. I love drag racing more than anything but its too expensive to be as competitive as I want to be. Guy with the deepest pockets usually wins in the end so I got tired of racing checkbooks and stick with golf ...can spend thousands on clubs but if you don't know have the skill to use them you're just wasting money! Can't say the same for straight line racing unfortunately.

And that's a shame about KCIR, still can't believe they just closed it like that.

I'm watching NHRA US National from Indy all day

Track rental on Monday at Atco (New Jersey)...should be a good time!
