Makes me laugh seeing the sport bike guys adding TI fasteners, carbon fiber....all to ADD lightness. Then the rider can barely zip the leathers over a big gut!  Just a diet would make the bike's quicker for sure!!! eldubb:...talk to me about that 440/727!!! I take trades!!!  I just need to know what I'm doing before I commit to throwing it into the 73 Dart. I'd rather sell it though.

ELDUB440, according to my calculations; 104.5mph should get you a 12.95 et. Awesome! Did she spin some?
Also is that PettyBlue in those pics?

Man...........you guys ! I also spent sunday at the track........Grove Creek , Mn. , an 1/8th mile that I knew intimately back in the day. A good friend who used to run a mid 6 second Duster and Demon ( one had three pedals on the floor ) now runs a large MoPar wedge in a dragster and sets a new track record every time he hooks. Currently 4.61 and 151 m.p.h. But sniffing the tire smoke and burnt race gas fumes got to me. The track has a new owner , new surface and tons of paving in the pits and staging. I figure that it may well be the most expensive day I have ever spent at the track because now I need a trailer , a different cam and convertor and will be going through the tranny. I took a hiatus to race motorcycle enduros for a spell , sold the race car and all the Ford parts I had , and now it will be another chapter in the on going novel " How much can I spend this summer "  There is way too much fun to be had out there .............way too much.
