View Full Version : Joey 56 at Wichita Falls Raceway
Here is video someone took this past weekend at a Grudge Race. This was off the trailer and was able to pick up the time after some tuning. Car still has plenty in it...but it sure surprised a bunch! I was told people that knew the car made some money! lol

Well car sees the grudge scene so its in the 6's in the 1/8? This pass was 1.53 60'ft. Best has been 1.46. This is all on a 275 with 8" rim! MPH is over 100...Has more in it

Nothing wrong with those numbers
My goal is 5.90's...not too far off For all steel car, with OD tranny, PS, A/C and just foot braking :)

That sounds like quite an impressive goal, what does car weigh with driver on board.
Its heavy but just have to add more boost!

Have you inspected your rod ends lately?
Which rods? Fishing rods, 4 link rods, connecting rods? Yes since I put new pistons in this year all was inspected. I have L19 rod bolts for extra strength
Here is a couple of pics from NX Gonzo

Looks great! I like especially like the top photo where you're melting the tires. You got a roll bar yet?
When you get one, let me know and I'll bring my helmet. My life insurance policy is paid up and I wanna go for a ride. :)

No roll bar and 6 second 1/8 defiantly not running an NHRA track.

Shoot, Deby has probably been in much faster cars than I have.
I'm joking about roll bar...but not about the helmet. Lol..
That car was fast when I drove it with the little 327...can't even imagine how hard it pulls now.
