Default Racing the Deuce

Though kind of cool, and damp, did a little racing yesterday. Personal best 60' of 1.416 and best ever ET of 6.607. We have have touched the tune yet, so no doubt on a good track with warmer temps we should see some 6.50s in the 1/8, and mid to lower 10s in the 1/4.

The Mopar is 440CI, 2 fours on a tunnel ram, auto with transbrake. This run was in the finals of Super-Pro, but since he is a good friend and we had agreed to split the $$ regardless of who won, just for kicks, I decided to leave at a higher RPM (5600 vs 4600) just to see what she would do. He dialed a 6.70, me a 6.64, but because of the best ever 60', I broke out with the 6.607.
