Test and tune at local track today

[Dond409]

Went to the local dragstrip today. I wanted to get the old wagon in the 12's. There was a strong headwind coming down the track. I was hoping it would die down, as I got really close as you can see by the timeslip. The run before this was a 13.136 @ 105.15. So the wind cost me almost 1 mph

Nice run. Bet that got your attention.

Cool looking engine. Care to show us a picture of your car and the engine?

Thanks Jim,

I appreciate it. You got to love these old wagons. They use to be the hot set up back in the day. Easier to hook up then the other body styles. I had a Camaro that I use to run in G/SA. Always had trouble getting it to hook.

Jim,

Can you send the picture of the wagon to my email address? It is ddeweave@twcny.rr.com. Could you possibly make it a little bigger? That looks like the Silver blue that my wagon is suppose to be. Do you know any history about that car? Anybody?

Thanks

On the way Don. Have a great weekend.:)
