Well, sort of. I had a new best MPH today. DA was 2,100'. Car ran 127.98. Too bad it wouldn't hook for do-do. 1.63 60'. Track prep and or my suspension weren't working. It's a shame to only run 10.78 with such a good MPH. I'm racing at a better track tomorrow so hopefully the short times will be better. I'll be pulling my engine after this weekend to freshen it up for next season. I almost hate to pull the engine out since it's running so good. However, I've got ~5,000 street miles and 349 passes on the short block, so I guess it's time.
