It's beer time, and I'm bored, so who would feel comfortable hanging the front tires with a 1.35 60' and going 9.92@134 @3475 lbs with this?

Radials are awesome... I would run them if I didn't have a stick shift. You can drive places without getting your balls busted and there's no wishy washy feeling on the highway.

It'll go faster in radials, if we can make it work, but we got new track management this year, and they're the ****. We've finally got a track that'll be good to race on. They've also introduced a new "real street" class that I'm going to race in, if I can get my engine torn down and put back together. I think I'll be first round meat because the rules are relaxed, and I bet it ends up being a 5.50 class, but it'll beat the shot out of only doing test and tunes.

Yeah it should be fun. It's an 1/8 mile class, so if I can get the radials working, I'm going to throw more nitrous at it. With the radials and more nitrous, I may look into a progressive.
There aren't many rules, which sometimes is good, but they leave it open to some fast stuff.
True door slammer - no one piece bodies, altered, ect...
100% Oklahoma street legal - tires, mufflers, lights
Tag and insurance required
Must be able to make 10 mile cruise without stopping
No body mods allowed. Must retain stock appearance - hoods ok
Full front interior mandatory - seats, dash, carpet, glass
Two rounds of qualifying - pro ladder - lane choice to the faster car previous round

I found the time slips for the cobra. This is the pass from the video I posted earlier. I was still on my old .065 jet tuneup, even though he would have beat me no matter what tuneup I had in it.

Now we also made an 1/8 pass, because we were in a local street car challenge thing, and those were the rules. We had to run pump gas, so I had a small tuneup in it for 91 octane, and he had e85. He should have ran this one out, because he was hauling ass.

And here is the video for that one.

Yeah that was going to be a fast run, but the time in the other slip is the fastest 1/4 mile time that it's put up. He should have stayed in it...lol
He drug my ass, which sucked because there was a lot of **** talk leading up..lol. We were the two fastest cars in the deal, and drew each other the first round. 2 weeks earlier we raced in Tulsa, and he didn't have the nitrous, and I beat him. He surprised me when he drove th **** around me in the 1/8 mile race. I knew what was coming in that 1/4 race though, because I knew he had nitrous at that point, but I told him I'd race, so I kept my word.

Even if I put my other slip up against him, I'm still out on him pretty good at the 330, but be comes on STRONG after that. I'd like to see what it would have ran out, because the 3.4 Whipple backhalves like a mofo.

Sure :naughty:
It's pretty well understood that nature of the rules, and what is meant by the street legal part. Like it says, DOT tire, tagged, insured, mufflers, ect..

Bracket racing is gay. Radial 8th mile is fun, especially a 5.50 street class. Would be cool to watch for sure. Plenty of 5.50 leaf spring guys doing it on radials. Just takes time and constant adjustment and monitering to stay consistant. It is more fun, and a radial is always faster than a slick.

Lol...yeah I won't really bracket race. I'm just guessing by the rules that it will be a 5.50 class, but I don't have enough motor to get to a 5.50. I'd be ecstatic if I ran a 5.99.
