Haven't watched it. 8 second cars ???? would that be 8.0's or 8.90's ????? pretty Big difference there.

Anybody here ever made an 8 second pass ? if not what would be your quickest pass ?

10.25 was my fastest in the 84 Camaro on alcohol

Have not drag raced much, but while living in Denver, back in the late 70's, I campaigned a VW bug that did 13.0's wheels up through 2nd gear .. :roll: :roll:

Bone 10.25 in a heavy 84 camaro is getting it.

Swiley you like me most 1/8th mile stuff round here. 7.30's is very respectable.

Brick 13's in a VW is OFF THE CHAIN MAN !!!!!!!!!

Bone I love the TA and I know its all personal preference what I am about to say....man if that Bad boy had a rear axle mount STS twin turbo intercooled it would take it in my book to the 10TH power SUPERBAD...

I just like different...guess thats why I pulled out the muncie in the 73 camaro and went with a 6 speed. ...Now I am thinking and dreaming Pro-Charger electronic fuel injection or turbo...its just a dream at this point.....although I do have the rotating assembly on the shelf in the garage. Sonny Bryany Billlet crank with Big Block Snout, Billet Lentz Rods, forged Srp pistons. I have also thought about one of those pump gas 500ci small blocks. lol

Your TA is bad no matter what. Hope you don't mind me sharing my vision with your car. lol

I did make a 1/4 mi pass but only the 1/8 mi timer was on. My combo was just slightly different. That was at beech bend about 8years ago all there weekly bracket run 1/8except the street class I was just checking rpm.
