What do u think of this race ?
There is a guy that wants to run me. His car went 9.40 @ 143 My car goes 10.16 @ 132 His car is a sbc with 2 stages of nitrous and a 29 x 10 with racegas. I am sbc on motor, pumpgas and a 28 x 10. He said he would spot me eveything in drag racing which means 1 car the break and the clear. This is in the 1/4. I have heard that this spot is wort .5 - .7 tenths If it is true i figure i have a chance. My car has only been out once and i was footbraking the car now i will be on a transbrake, have about 34 degress of timing instead of the 30 and have my suspension worked out. my car 60 ft 1.45 and his goes 1.39 I figure i have 2-3 tenths left in the car should put me in the 9.80 range. If the spot is worth that much i should be good. What do u think ?

Is there any $$$$$ on the line in this race???? If not, give it hell and shift just before the valves float right out of the heads.

I say tell him to put street radials on and go heads up...
let him have the bottle, thats one way to even things out.

Idon't know... How good is the "track prep"
Sometimes if the " track prep" is not good, the slower car is an advantage in it's self.

I wudnt take a spot.. But thats just me. Id add a stage to yours or tell him to cap off one of his. He must not have much motor to start with if it takes him two stages to go 40's.
