Hi guys took my 86 NA 7 down to the quarter mile today for the third time = previously I have had pretty **** times, best was 15.9 - but i had a feeling she could do better!!!
today was much better -
Best 1/4 run was 15.535 at 89.15mph
I ran my best 60FT too - 2.297!!
While I was very happy with my ET - I was especially pleased with my 60FT - the best till today I could muster was 2.5.
My car runs a stock open diff and the slippery/shittiest tyres out.
What was of interest is I found my best Et times and 60FT came from launching at a lowly 2500RPM...
Previously I had stripped the maz out interior wise - today I couldn't be bothered and ran full interior 2+2..
90mph seems to be the quickest Trap Speed it can do - which leads me to think thats about as quick as I will go ET wise with this near stock setup.
Bridgeported 4port end plates and RB Holley 650 on the way!!

13b2quickny do you drive ur bridgeported engine on the street or do u only take it to the track? I was wondering whether a bridgeport would be able to be used as a daily driver or if it would be too loud or idle challenged.

But as a weekender/stip runner its perfect - you pull up at lights an people just stare - they dont understand the idle, messes with their heads...

Thats a damn good 60' time. My best in my n/a is a 2.38 and i was really happy with that. Last time I went drag racing I beat a TII with that was mildly modded but it was one of the guys first times drag racing.
