xmas party done and dusted
it was one of the hottest and humid days weve had with storms threatening allround, terrible for racing, 30 to 40 cars raced of all kinds, classic,hot rods,utes, race cars,late model stuff and my cobra. the format was race as many passes as you want with whoever you come up against. my first pass with the new engine was a 11.5, 118mph with a bad reaction time of .654, if i had of cut a .2 it would have been an 11.1. my car with me in it weighs 1300kgs.im pretty happy with that. the heat sapped at least 2 to 3 tenths off eve
rybodys times. the small block windsor with only a solid roller ''touring ''cam smoked all comers except my mates 408 windsor 68 mustang running nos and transbrake, its a weapon, does 10 flat street regd. the rmc cobra performed beautifully all day and i later pulled a 121mph but a slower time which means with cold air and a good reaction time and a perfect gear change [ my tachos not working ] its got a 10 in it, now im wondering why i didnt put a race roller in it. at the end of the day the 2 windsors retired underfeated against blown ,turboed,nos equiped cars,454 chevys. HOOK LINE WINDSOR.

Only need to spend it once.
Boys,
I Agree That The New LS Series Engines Make Good Power Without Much Modifications.
Just Enjoy Every Minute You Drive It, Cause You Will Only Get a Few
Ford Iron Tough, 360RWKW 3 Nationals 2 Shelby Feasts And 35, 11 And Low 12 Second Passes On The 1/4, Plus Many Hours Possing On The Street.
Cheap power in the long run boys.
Phil
