Steve, 121 would almost get a light car into the 10's. Improve your 60ft and the rest will follow.
The red RR that runs at york, is going easy 11.20's at 118 or so and that's a fairly mild 440 street car.

Deffo the 60ft that makes the difference. Like you Steve, 1.8 is my best, but hoping to get that down a 'bit' ;)
120's should be well down in the 11's at least, my best 129mph, so you're not much back on that :thumbright:

Thought with Geof setting up the front and new 90/10 on for racing I would have seen at least 1.7 -1.6...its alawys had 1.8 60's...regardless of high 12.9 or low 12.0 ??


Your 128 was storming run....it all came together that afternoon...remember it :thumbright:

With the old bill mason 500 in the 64 polara I was running 11.0's and a best of 10.89 all around 119-121, 60ft was high 1.5's on caltracs and 28x10.0 slicks I know the mph is low but it did it and that car weighed 3700ld
