There is a race this friday in shelton, WA. Last weekend i went and couldent launch over 2,200RPM without spinning badly. My best 60' time was a 2.2 so if anybody can loan me a pair on 4 lug wheels(i will gladly pay and will not do a burnout on the tires) or sell me a pair that would be awesome, i'm in Aberdeen but would drive an hour or two to pick up a pair..also if you know anybody that races sprint cars i would like to buy 2 old front tires off em..for a 15" wheel

Sorry, I am not going to Shelton, but if you can come to Pacific Raceway on Friday or Bremerton for ALL FORD DAY on Saturday, I will bring traction tires on four lug wheels for you to use . Or could sell the Mickey Thompson Drag Radials for $100 (275 - 50's). That's all they're worth. They should get you through the season.

Huh? Friday is the BCC cruise and they're going to Shelton. There will be allot of Stangs there I would think.
Also. Jake on SVTP.com has a set of prostars if you're running 5 lug.

I'll try to remember to bring the short belts, Al. I hope you got the jet extensions in. With this heat, the only chance of a personal best would be late in the evening or on the first couple passes at Bremerton on Saturday.

I am going to predict that only about 30 of those cars actually race. Tell me if I am wrong after the event.

Happy to be wrong on that one. That means the organizers will probably try to reenstate a drag racing component to the Roundup activities. The Roundup always coincides with the ALL FORD DAY at Bremerton. You'd think something could be worked out...

27!!! That's a record!

With 98 mph trap speed, you have enough power for high 13's.

naah i really couldent beat the 14.5, it's impossible with my setup. Sure with lots of suspension mods i could get there, but naah, i'll wait for the 400HP! also i got the cam and crank in last night, the cam gear is binding against the thrust plate and the dowel in the cam is too short...otherwise slick as butter
