Went to CMP (Chandler Motorsports Park) Sat.
Went to CMP as a tater(Spec....Tater) To watch some of the guys that work for me in the shop. It was one of thems first time to run... he had a blast. His first R/T was a .90 and ran a 9.87 and the second was a .130 and ran a 9.37 and he never did get a good run during qualifing so we dialed him in at 9.20. 1st round he had a .33 R/T and ran an 8.68. He is hooked now.
The second guy had an oil leak in his first round of qualifing and about knocked down the left retaining wall.We will get that fixed and try again next week.
Third one had a decent day,First round ran a 7.20 on a 7.20 Dial in and won but a header tube broke and put him on the trailer.
I will be glad to get my truck done so I can be running with them, But i have a long way to go so maybe by the end of the year it will be ready to try.

Chandler Indiana?... I used to race there all the time. Still go there every once in a while to help a buddy with his roundy car.

Re: Went to CMP (Chandler Motorsports Park) Sat.
I do have pictures of it on my computer at home. I got it from a guy who I am doing the wiring on a 56 that he is restoring for a show truck. So I dont get to work on mine as much as i want till i finish his truck. Mine is a barn find so i am starting from scratch,I have the 460 that i am building to put in it and a good start on the parts for it.I bought the crank, H beam rods and pistons from one of the guys that work for me. He is building a stroker for his fox body mustang.I have a C4 Prepped and ready by a local shop, still need a converter yet. I have a 9" strange spool and richmond race gear, I still need axles yet.Lots of work to do and not near enough time to get it all done.Bruce69Camaro wrote:I want to hear more about your truck.

Re: Went to CMP (Chandler Motorsports Park) Sat.
How much power you guessing you'll have?
The reason I ask, my coworker just went through some painful experience building and rebuilding his C4 in his Mustang. He kept burning up the clutches. Finally he decided to go with a P/G becuase he was warned that his 1000hp motor would kit the C4.
Also what spline axles you looking for? I got a new set of Moser axles that I have posted in the for sales section if your interested. They were cut for a narrowed nine inch housing I bought from S&W that was for a 24" frame rail.
My friend has a 53 Ford PU that he dropped a 350 LT1 and it was one fun truck and ran like a raped ape.

Sounds like you might be looking to lay down some serious horsepower and torque. If you can, please post pix of your build as you go, that way we can all follow along with it.Fat 56 F100 wrote:I do have pictures of it on my computer at home.

Re: Went to CMP (Chandler Motorsports Park) Sat.
I have been worried about the C4 Holding up.I dont plan on the 1000hp but while im building my favorite sayings is "if a little is good, bigger is even better ". I am going to build the frame and all the fab work to go bigger and better rather than have to change it all down the road to go faster.Bruce69Camaro wrote:How much power you guessing you'll have?
