Import Face Off in Kent Washington yesterday. Had a fun day. With light rains and the track restriction times, they had to end the race before it finished. Shared the Purse Winings with 2 other racers.
I dialed in the 11.50 Index class and ran a 11.67.
I know the car will run faster with tunning and more juice but the car has found its happy place. 🙂

D,
I have a 6 point cage which allows me to run up to a 9.91.
9.90 and faster would require a 8 point. So I'm pretty safe and pretty sure I won't go that fast. 🙂
Racing season starts April 1st. 👍

The rears are 15", 26" tires which again, M&H had the only tire that would fit that I wanted.
That VW was beast. No boost, no Nitrous, nothing but motor. I think it's a 1400 VW motor with 14 to 1 compression running VP C17.
Anyways, I just need to dial my car more closer to the 11.50 mark. 👍

Thanks. This has been an ongoing build.
24" tall front runners on a 15" wheel. M&H had the only tire that would fit.
The mini spool is the rich man's locker. Not interested in welding anymore differential. 🙂

A couple of changes this year to the car. I decided to get rid of the front steel wheels and go with an aluminum wheel with 3.5 inch skinny's in the front and a mini spool in the the rear. Should improve times. We hope. 🙂

Since it doesn't say Datsun than -40°F back in Minnesota where I grew up. Was just as cold in Alaska but I wasn't driving at the time due to the fact I was only in second grade. 🙂
The heater blew cold air but we knew it was warmer than what was outside. 😃

Nice work. 👍
Some say that Rally is more of a rush than Drag. That's hard to say. 🙂
I use to have one of those rear view mirrors on my B210. 🙂

Nice presentation. 👍

Looks Good. 👍
Yes, I am one of those ones that don't dabble in the A Series engines anymore. Sold off everything except for the original A12 that came out of my car. Just can't part with it. 🙂

Dave,
It's actually a S14 out of a 240sx. Slightly different motor than the KA they put in the Nissan Frontier.
I believe stock is 30 more HP. 👍
