Waking up the beast

Hey bob, congrats on the 11's. Thanks for the hospitality and putting up with me and the kids for a few hours. Thank your wife again for making that chicken just for the kids (both times). Sorry it ended up going to waste. Now all I have to do is figure out how to load this blasted video...

Thanks for coming out today. It was a pleasure meeting you guys. Had a great time. The track was better than I thought it was going to be. I ran my best time yet. 11.87 and breaking up at the top end. Good day overall. I made it to the final round. Double red light but iI jumped first, so runner up for the second year in a row.

By the way, you look nothing like your avatar.

So fellas, I was wondering - earlier on this post, you were trapping at 113 mph at 5500 rpm if I recall. Now you're trapping at 6100 at 112. Did I miss a gear change in the meantime?

The air is getting worse now. no more mine shaft air and no tail wind.

You may have missed a 3.55 to 4.10 gear change or a torque converter change or the change in the weather.

Ok, that's what I thought. I remember you saying you had the 4.10's but don't remember you installing them.

That was the very first post of this thread. I guess you jumped on in the middle.
 
Maybe this will give me a little more consistency!

I don't like the Auto Gage tach. can you return it for a real tach. AUTOMETER would have been my choice.

So, at 6100, is it time for a solid cam?

Not yet, I haven't found one on the side of the road yet.

Poser? That's it, I guarantee I'll be half way down the track by time you even start! (Mostly because of handicap). :) once my car stops irrigating my garage floor with various fluids, that is.

NO MORE EXCUSES. Irrigate on the track. No one will notice.
