Well last week end was its first trip anywhere. I drug it out to the dragstrip in medicine hat and with out a tune up just running as it fired and drove it on the trailer short shifting the car it ran a best of 10.97 at 126 mph which is pretty stout considering that there has been no tuning done on it and as i raced it is how i drove it on the street last night and the air was brutal most of my freinds cars were slow by 2-3 tenths because the density altitude was around 6700 feet above sea level . Next time out it will have the 750 vacuum secondary carb taken off and a 850 dbl pumper on and i will in stead of foot braking the car on the leave i will use the tranny brake and get the chassis set up it should run a low 10 on pump gas i will post picture from the race weekend and up coming street wheelers next weekend .
