Yenko Deuce racing
 

Spent part of Sunday afternoon at Dyno Dom's Sikeston Drag Strip's teat and tune session. Great weather, great people and the best part, even though it was just a TNT session, the crew had the track prepped as if it were a major event. The Yenko was hooking so good that I was able to lower my all time best short time and 1/8 ET (1.3338 and 6.3416).

That 1/8 time equates to a 9.80-9.90 pass!

That's one strong running small block! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Being Fall, and better air, temps, etc, I hope to run a couple of 1/4 mile tracks and see if I can go lower then my previous bests of 10.30s. I would love to get into the 10.0? range, but that is asking a lot of a normally aspirated 355CI SBC in a 3000lb door slammer.

Nice wheels up. Way cool!!

Re: Yenko Deuce racing
 

As a rule of thumb, you can multiply your 1/8 mile e.t. by 1.56 or 1.57 to calculate your theoretical 1/4 mile e.t.

1.56 works better on well scienced out cars and 1.57 is a little more forgiving.

You can also calculate theoretical 1/4 mile mph by dividing 1320 by your e.t.:

1320/9.90 = 133.33 MPH

1320/10.90 = 121.1 MPH

1320/11.90 = 110.9 MPH

It's reasonably accurate.
