    How to drag race your classic

    I messed around with tire pressure, I started at 16psi and moved down to 8-9psi, they are mt drag radials, et streets, the kind with the lines, basicly a slick with a few groves cut into it.

    How to drag race your classic

    When I launch, the tire spins 3 times around before i get traction. I might need to foot break the car.

    How to drag race your classic

    No updates on my set-up. I brought it to the track a few months ago and it didn't run good. With my blower I could only run a mallory crap cab and i hate it. At the track the plug wires wouldn't hold so my car was breaking up the entire day. There is nothing like drawing a big crowd watching...

    How to drag race your classic

    What are you guys running them at the track. I tried the 5 but it didn't work, I think I'm all the way at 9. That might be too much

    Lower Ball Joints

    Whay are lower ball joints for a 67 40.00 dollars each, isn't that high. I also noticed I can buy a lower control arm withthe ball joint included for 75-80.00 dollars, that also seems weird. Is there a cheaper place than 40.00 each, or should I save and go with a aftermarket control arm for...

    Should I tub the Beast?

    Thats my point, there is something wrong. Also with Nitrous you can launch with lower settings and increase nos with a roots blower, its launching full boost. Thats the problem with roots blowers, they don't come in easy, they hit hard.

    Should I tub the Beast?

    Rear suspension are new mono leaf springs and rancho 9000's. They are desighned for drag racing. I think I am overpowering my set up. The next step would be tubs. I am running basicly a dot slick. I have tried different tire pressures from 15psi to 7psi. I guess I could try to footbreak...

    Should I tub the Beast?

    I am thinking about a full tube chassis and keeping my car also. Putting my blown 347 in the track car and putting a 351 in my current car and keeping it as a fun daily driver.

    Should I tub the Beast?

    I have all the aftermarket suspension parts they make. A complete Calvert Racing suspension with drag launch front springs and 90/10's, no sway bar. The best 60' is a 1.6ish high as 1.7's... Thats bad with my combo, i'm pushing big numbers and those times are frustrating. I need less weight...

    Should I tub the Beast?

    The next step would be at least a tub. I have the narrowed rear already. I have all after market suspension from Calvert Racing. I have a drag radial on the car now but with my roots blower, I launch with almost 600tq and 500+hp with 12psi.
