Race ready
#1
7949] My buddy is getting ready for his first time out with the Coronet. Put race slicks on this weekend,bumped up fuel pressure,checked and double checked all the vital stuff,think we are ready to go. Built 2 1/2 yrs ago just now getting it to the track. Hope to do low 8's or high 7's.He is nervous as hell,which is understandable,just don't wanna tear anything up,but thats the risk you take. He has a 70 Bee under restoration now,that will be his weekend driver,be good to have someone to cruise with. Test and tune next Friday,and if car is doing good,race on SaturdayBeer

If it is really 585 hp and hooks it should run 10.90's to 11.0's (7.00 7.1's in eighth).
