I don't race my car, but there was a BDR Backdraft at our local track last night. The car was powered by a 351, hyd roller lifter, mid range cam,roller rockers, AFR heads, 750 Edelbrock carb, with 3:10 rear with 315 Nitto drag radials.
Track rules state that open cars running under 14 seconds need roll cages. The car was allowed to run if it stayed under that speed. It was dark so the actural finish line was hard to judge. The plan (I was told) was to run hard in first and second gear then back off before the traps. So the first few runs started great but produced times between 14 and 17 seconds speeds from 45 to 85 mph.
The last run of the night was an all out effort. Ran 12.33 at 111, then pulled into the parking lot. Maybe with a Carb change and some more expirence for the driver the car will break 12 seconds
