John,I know what your car will be capable of doing.To try to keep 1 step ahead of you we are changing the blow-thru carb set up to fuel injection with a Holley computer.When you are finished we should meet.

Looking for a pro track, Indy is about the same distance for all three of us, give or take a couple hours. I've raced at Indy twice during DragWeek and it was a great place to visit too. I'm about 7 hrs, you're about 11 hrs and Marty is about 9 hours. That is assuming we can coax him into bringing his Marauder up to play.

Otherwise I'm up for a road trip!

DragWEEK 2016 announced the track schedule, and the home track is National Trail Raceway in Hebron, OH. I checked that track and it turns out about 9 hours for you, MartyO and myself! There, pro track that is in the middle. Joe, you should consider signing up for DragWEEK this year. It is definitely a bucket-list item and then we could race all week long against each other.

Challange accepted?

John,Drag week would be fun but the race car was built for drag race only.With the transmission and rear end gearing it would not work.

The 4L80E already has an OD. Not sure you need both...
