1.19 60’ … hot damn.
Didn’t know he had a 440 now… the old rumor was that the 440s couldn’t take boost and were left for the NA guys. For high boost they wanted 39X cubes, upwards of 426, but nothing more.
Im glad that Z, Demon, and TKM have it figured out.

I'll tell you what, that is pretty damn amazing. Unassuming, relaxed. Just gets the job done. Did he put the helmet on in the car?

What always strikes me is how sedately that car leaves the line. No roaring or jumping around. Just swoosh and its gone.

And I'm with Jack, that 1.19 60 says it all.

I did 7s quite a while ago...we're talking 1/8 mile, right? 😉

Great run!

I agree on the launch, somehow it doesn't look like all that.

But clearly it is!

Funny to say, with a 1.19 60' but he has said that he soft launches it to try and save the stock trans., hard to believe but he's doing it. Simply bad ass !

I remember when 7's were referred to as "The Twilight Zone" for funny cars. Dyno Don Nicholson's Comet was one of the first, IIRC.

Ya, because a 1.19 sec 60' is just terrible.









Holy crap that is a quick 60 even if not taking it easy on it...very impressive.
