Keith,your car's ET'ing pretty well for that MPH. What were your 60fts?

That El Camino is just amazing to me. It just does so many things well. Hats off to you as its builder.
Thanks Clint!

Actually, for that MPH the ET is high. Cars with a properly set up suspension and slicks are running well into the 11's with that mph. In fact, back in the day, the previous owner was running 11.40's at 116.

I pulled a couple 1.88 60' times with my BFG drag radials which is a .4 sec improvement over the Sumitomo's. The biggest difference the BFG's made though was letting me hammer 2nd gear. With the Sumitomo's, I couldn't go full throttle until I hit 3rd.
