That Nova is going to be a tough cookie on the track with 632 cubes.

After getting relicensed last year, we're ready to attend some events this year. First one up is The March Meet in Bakersfield and hopefully a few more as time and money permits. We installed a set of beadlocks and new 33x17 Hoosiers, had some tire shake issues as seen in the video...



We have some changes to make to get the shake sorted out and will be testing further next month. we ran a string of 7.70's rattling the tires every run, but should fit right in A/gas index (7.60) as soon as we have that handled.

Thanks Greg. My new years resolution was to get out of the shop a little and have more fun this year with friends and family! So far, so good, a trip to Disneyland with the family and the dragstrip with friends!

Great stuff! I'm a drag racer more than anything. That Nova is killer. I have a few good friends that run PSCA stuff. I used to help them when they ran NHRA Comp Elminator or the Goodguys stuff in A/Gas. Unfortunately my buddy who also had a killer Nova waded it up down in Bakersfield. Overall the same style car you have but it had an older 500" Pro Stock motor that made about the same power as yours. Best hit was 7.46. Good thing with your combo is you do it with less effort! Good luck and nice to take time away for yourself!

I used to work about 100yds from where the sand trap was at Fremont. Used to race there in HS. What a shame it's gone. The land is still not being used.

Thanks, that car looks familiar I may have seen it in its glory days.

We probably raced each other at Fremont! I spent every Weds night there and raced in "The last drag race" in 89. Lots of great memories there. In fact I bought a new truck at Fremont GMC last Monday and test drove it right to the end of the street where the strip used to be, hadn't been down that way in a looooong time!
