I know this guy. Has himself a 69 Camaro on T/A radials, carb'd small block 425hp, automatic 200r4. Never been down the 1320 before.
I wonder what do you think his ET will be his FIRST TRIP down the track at the 1/4. Lets say its a cool 65 degrees that day.
Estimate to the nearest 0.5
Remember, 1st trip ever.

Just wondering what you guys think, experienced, and what you may have witnessed.


I didn't see the option to create a poll, so I guess you will have to post what you think.

I'll start.

17.5

Creating a poll is right under attachments in the full editor, under the blue line.

With some pre-1st pass coaching I think right around 14.25 is where he will wind up! Then with some practice, fine tuning and maybe a set of MT's he should be able to dip into the upper 12's. He might even tick off a mid 12 with enough time on the track.

What does the closest to the actual ET win

I don't know. Maybe he will donate a matchbox car or something.

I'm sure glad he has a great sense of humor. If he ever reads this thread...

Oh, and I just remembered. He might have a chance to run some drag radials, that might change things a touch.
So we will keep this "poll" as if the T/A radials will be on it.
Because the voters would have to take into consideration the car keeping the driveshaft, ujoints, axle shafts, wheel studs etc attached to the car after that first hit and from 1st into second at 7000rpm...

~14.5
