[Karl Bebout]

What a beautiful day it was for the drag strip. Greg and I were the only Cobras there and itbites showed up with his 'vette. I was not at all happy with my results but Greg's car was screaming! Even with a real soft launch, he was turning 128 MPH and I think his best time was a low 10.90 or high .80. What a monster that Roush small block 427 is! I've got to think that if he'd bullet-proof his rear end so he could launch hard that he'd probably go 1/2 second quicker. Really a nice set up.

As for my runs, many trials and tribulations and flimsy excuses, but the bottom line is that I wasn't getting the power to the ground and I also wasn't making the power I did the first couple times out when I got down to 10.74. Thinking the move from the Edelbrock 800 to the Holley 850 was not such a good idea. I've never gone anywhere as quickly since making the switch. Back to the drawing board. See y'all next Saturday at Hersh and Paula's.
