Just curious how long many on here have been drag racing ? I started back in the 70's as I bracket raced a 66 Dart I put a 340 with a 4-speed in it and raced it from 1978 until 1982 when I rolled it. But back then all we got was a time card with the et & MPH written on it and not typed in. No...

Yes I got a good deal and an MSD 6A digital box. So I bought an MSD coil and installed and wired it up the other day. My old Mopar ign worked fine but with the MSD multispark at 3000 RPM and below I hope it will keep the plugs cleaner even longer. I could go all summer on the same plugs and...

We have been building a 451 for my sons Dart. It will be getting supercharged with a Pro Charger also. They are Diamond piston with a Scat crank and rods. We just got the cam in and degreed yesterday and checked all the cam timing which was right on the money. It calls for a 108 ICL and we...

Who has run the MSD digital 6AL box ? I just got one for a good price and I plan to finally put MSD on my 63. I myself have not heard good or bad about the MSD digital units so I am curious who has used them and do they have any problems with them compared to the analog units ? Everyone I know...

I know I have not been here much lately as I have been having a lot of health issue's with my bad joint pain and my knee and back problems. But I did finally make a T & T and made two passes as I wanted to see how the car ran with the Holley 950 HP carb on my car in place of the 850 DP I...

My son and I drove our cars to the track on Oct 20th and raced in an NSS class. It had rained the night before and they said they could not get the track dry at the end so they made us run the 1/8 mile which I don't like. But we raced anyway and had a good time and my son was still in after 3...

My two sons and two nephews along with me all went to Cecil to a test & tune this past weekend. I had the Proform 950 on my car and the 850 DP in the trunk. My son Ron Jr ran his 72 Dart with the 400 in it and my other son Tim drove and ran Ron Jrs SRT-4 Neon. Well I was so into trying the...

I had some spare time yesterday so I jetted and bolted the 950 on my 63. I jetted it the same as I had in my 850 which was 83's and 91's with a 4.5 P/V. I had jetted the primary down a little on the 850 to clean up my cruise circuit a little. Well I tell you this Proform runs Great ! After I...

I took this 950 ProForm off my buddies 460 Mustang and put his new 850 DP on it that he wanted me to do. So he told me to take this 950 ProForm and try it on my 63 if I like. So I plan to go through it and put it on my 63 in place of my 850 DP and I hope to hit a test & Tune on Oct the 29th and...

These guys from a mag called "Drag Illustrated" did this article on my brothers 64 this summer while he was at the track racing. Looks like both of us got some ink this year with my car in Mopar Muscle and now him in this mag. He has a script to the mag but I dont know where to find it on the...

Ever since my brother did some adjustments on his rear shocks and put new slicks on his 64 is really hooking good at every track he has been racing at. Nothing like some consisdent hook. Ron

A friend of mine Dave Collette bought a 68 SS/AH Hemi Cuda last year and is using Ray Barton hp in it. Its the old "Dixie Hemi" Cuda and he crashed it wednsday 8/26/15 at Cecil County in Md. They say it looked like the rear wheels may have locked at the finish line and then it turned into the...

Yes my brother won the Nostalgic Superstock race he ran in Saturday at Capital raceway in Md. He races with the 422 NSS club and always enjoys it. I did not have my car as I dont think I will get it to the track this year. His 64 Fury was running good cranking out 10.0's all day. He raced...

My racing history that is. It cold and slow so I thought I would tell you all about my first hotrod I got and raced. It was in 1974 when I bought a 66 Dart with a 235 hp 273 and a 4-speed. The eng was blown and I built another 273 I got and put it in the car and drove it on the street until...

http://www.1962to1965mopar.ornocar.com/mmo12015.html He still does not have a home computer so I posted this for him. He has really came to liking the Nostaligic SuperStock racing alot and has been racing with the 422 club a good 5 or more years. I think he only missed one of their races...
