i can't leave any harder with the d/r but the big end it's flying.

well the old nova ran 5.68 in the 1/8 mile with a 572 in it power glide 5500 converter and a 430 gear 16.5x33x15 tires a little heavy at 3421 lbs all steel but hood and bumpers all factory glass and interior all lights work and thru exhaust i guess that wasn't to bad now the bird hasn't been out yet this year but the same combo but the weight is a bit lighter 2300 lbs so it should run pretty good i hope .
well itryed to post a pic of the nova but couldnt do it .

rl, with a 1000# diet that thing should fly!!!!

RonOwensRacing 05-11-2007 06:08 PM

i hope so those 1000 lbs sure cost a lot tom put the avatar up for me that's the bird there it ran 5.30 with a mild 540 in it so with this one i hoping to get down in the very low 5,s

Just run the two step the whole pass. Think the 2500 pill will suffice? :D
