10-23-08  We went to the track a couple weekends ago.  I mounted the slicks and pulled off several 12.9's.  The 60 footers' are still suffering at 2.0-1 but I dipped into the 12's and that was all I was hoping for.  I was hoping for lower than .9's, actually expecting low 12's but it's something to work on this winter.  I'm hoping that the new set of Power Lock 3:91's I have will improve the 60's.  Here's a few videos my buddy's wife shot.  In the first video at the .11 mark you can hear a 2nd scratch.  Amazingly, I whipped the WRX.  He must have been off his game.

I currently have two cars. A'70 Dodge Charger R/T SE and a '70 Dodge 340 Challenger. The Challenger can be seen HERE

My Charger is an all #'s matching R/T car with the #'s 440-4 drivetrain currently in retirement. It's a factory plum crazy purple, black interior & top car and is equipped with the Special Edition package and with mine it consists of power windows, rear window defogger, cruise control, exterior light on buzzer and leather seats to name some of it's options.

It currently has a 472 Hemi crate motor with the Stage V intake and two Edelbrock 650's on top and 3" tti exhaust. This past winter ('07) we rebuilt another transmission with Hemi internals and put the Gear Vendors Overdrive/Underdrive in to compliment the 3:55 gear ratio.

This winter ('08) I'll be putting new rear leaf springs, Caltracs suspension, frame connectors and some 295's on.

New pictures of the recently installed Cal Tracs, leaf springs, sub frame connectors, new 275/60 on 8.5" rears & 235/60 tires on 7" width fronts.
I now have the desired rake I was after. 5-18-08

This winter ('09), haven't decided.
