AI H/C track times.....
Ran my car yesterday and had a best of 11.48@118.3 in the 1/4 and a best of 7.34@95.98 in the 1/8th. Short times were 1.73-1.75 on those runs.
I'm still running a 3.23 gear which I think was hurting the car especially through the 1/4. The car would shift into 3rd right after the 1/8th and the rpms would drop to around 4500 and only pull to about 5200 through the traps. I was still pretty pleased with it for the first time out and think the car will run 11.oh's with a gear change.
*edit*
Heres a video of one of my passes. Ran 7.38 1/8th and 11.51 1/4 on this video with a 1.76 60ft.

Lets hope it doesn't turn that way. I would rather hear opinions on how much a gear change would help.

FWIW when my only changes were 3.73's and the crane 227 cam (only gained 19rwhp) I went from 13.0 to 12.5. The tranny was slipping on the 12.5 run as well. I gained 6mph too. I don't see bottom 11's/high 10's being a problem with a better 60' and 4.11's.
