I'm guessing anywhere from 9.50's to 9.80's depending on the air that day.  The last trip to the track the DA was 2973 and that slowed me down 2 1/2 tenths to 10 flat.  We shall see....    :burnout:   

Have you ever taken your Beast to the track?

No not yet. But I'm considering getting it dyno'd

We could do that.

It'll be a while before I do get it dyno'd.

Myself and my buddy with the Hemi Dart are planning on coming to Gadsden a couple of times this cruising season. Not sure what months yet, but I will let you know.....   :2thumbs:

I will be sure to drive there to meet you. Am willing to bet that it is at the waterfalls when they have the show?

Seems to be too fast on the first, unhappy on the second, so I'd go with door #3.

The problem with the third one is that is goes up and down and would drive me nuts.

The second one is closer to what I would choose but ymmv.

You got yourself one awesome car, Fish.

Maybe one day, we meet half way, winner buys the burgers, loser buys the beer!
