Well I got there and they canceled. Its 50*F and cloudy with 30% chance of rain. I think they just canceled because they assumed a low turn out.

Bummer....

s10-den · 03-28-2008, 10:32 PM

So, what do you think it will run?

NotaDime · 03-28-2008, 10:59 PM

great weather for the track. whats your elevation there?

***SweetS10V8*** · 03-28-2008, 11:16 PM

800ft I think

s10-den · 03-29-2008, 09:22 AM

they were just being asses.that almost perfect wheather for racing.I think it will go about 13??,just a guess

***SweetS10V8*** · 03-29-2008, 09:32 AM

I would guess a 13.1-13.5 @ 103-105mph. But I would always hope for faster!

My old truck was running 13.2@107 with 2.4-2.6 60fts (10 yrs ago). And it had an open rear end, but didnt have a stock engine.

s10-den · 03-29-2008, 09:39 AM

Are you going to run slicks or just street tires?

1badzq8 · 03-29-2008, 11:30 AM

***SweetS10V8*** · 03-29-2008, 04:48 PM

Street tires, theres a small chance I might borrow some drag radials from Formulakid1 since hes going too with this S-10 Blazer.

***SweetS10V8*** · 04-30-2008, 09:26 PM

So, Im going to give it another shot tommorow night!! Supposed to be 75*F and only 10% chance of rain.

RedLsxS10 · 04-30-2008, 09:45 PM

Good luck!

NateZQ8 · 05-01-2008, 01:08 AM

Did posting here jinx you last time?

just a thought

s10-den · 05-01-2008, 07:33 AM

with slicks, you better be in the 12's

AmericanMuscle · 05-01-2008, 01:50 PM

when are you going to do stuff to this engine or are you gonna keep it stock?

RedLsxS10 · 05-02-2008, 12:45 AM

Did you go?? How did she do?

***SweetS10V8*** · 05-02-2008, 01:12 AM

Well the night was successful. I drove there made 5 runs and drove home without issue. The first run wasnt pretty. All im gonna say is my 60ft time was 3.255 sec but my MPH was 103.

I know what that equates to in quater but I won't say. Are you running a 6spd cause I'd be shocked with an auto. Sorry I don't know your truck. I thought my first track run at 2.7 was little miss light foot or were you mr bucket of bricks running fast to nowhere. 5 runs is pretty good this early in the racing year at route 66 you're lucky to get 2 on saturday. Tuesdays around june til end at test and tune you can get what they tell you I pushed 8 one night but only got 4 another. You know what is funny when the mustangs and imports (bmw included) come over to your stock looking s10 thinking they've something to beat up on
