[@JeffLeblanc-xb7qe]

@@JustMoparJoe they use to laugh and call me red light Jeff it takes a while a bracket tree isn’t that easy to cut a good light especially if you are foot braking takes a while but you are a good mechanic one of the cleanest and a good racer you are going to do very well

Boy that looks like how you have a good time. Great times and good reaction time.

[@JustMoparJoe]

Thanks brother! Looking forward to next time

[@TsGoodTimesGarage]

I've taken my fair share of naps at the tree. Still, a day at the track is usually a really good day. And a few rounds in never hurts either. Nice racin' Joe.

[@johnwilburn]

[@JustMoparJoe]

Oh man! I’ll have to delete that soundtrack 😂

[@Duster_Garage]

Solid work. I could only dream of consistently good reaction times like those😂. On another note, Shane’s Dart runs very well. Was he spraying nitrous on those runs or was that all motor?

[@JustMoparJoe]

He never got to spray! His bottle pressure was over 1000, and he needed it consistent for his data. I’m looking forward to seeing how it goes with it!

[@johnmullins2798]

Think I saw two .001 R/Ts Made it to the semis anyway.

[@JustMoparJoe]

Yes sir. I snuck a .014 in there somewhere. Gotta get more of those

[@Roosters_Restos]

That's some nice lights .001 is hard to do. You get credit but once again racing is racing and some you win and some you loose. So remember only in traffic to you wait for the light to turn green😂 just sayin

Haha! Thanks Rooster. The truck race was pushed again because of rain. I’m making some slow progress on old blue

[@JustMoparJoe]

Haha! Thanks brother. You know a fish is much wider from the side 😂

[@smilsmff]

Very nice. I wonder what those 60 foot times are on the dart small block car, It seems to move slowy off the line for so much power

[@JustMoparJoe]

I think it was around a 1.41 when mine was 1.44. The track just kept falling off. He's running a 4.10 and power glide.

[@karlsracing8422]

I was going to say glide makes them sound lazy but work very well.

Had to add this you are running my fav hood on both cars nothing looks better on a Mopar the the six pack hood

Hey Joe, Tim here, ya know, there's more ET in the Cuda!!.....u got 60' issues.....if i can CONSISTENTLY do 1.53 60's, runnin 7 flat @ 99/100 mph, no brake, no nitrous, u shud consistently do 1.45's or better (i was thinkin 1.43)...as you make ALOT more power than i do, got big tires (i got 275/60 drag radials).....and i welded in the adj Mopar pinion snubber......play with launch set up....i bet there's ET there.....u shud launch harder than u do......just thoughts...... .enjoyed the vid, and the other dudes sm block was impressive!!!.....PEACE my brother!!

[@JustMoparJoe]

Thanks Tim. I can blame the track that never gets scraped and only gets sprayed once a day(with a pump up sprayer), or my 5 year old slicks, or my 4.10 gears with a 29” tall tire, or the track warning up to 140 degrees that day. My best was a 1.35 60’ back in the fall. It’s a fun track to adjust to, but it’s definitely a unique situation

[@TimothyArnott-m7z]

@@JustMoparJoe i agree, if ur best was 1.35, then if it hooks properly, thats a 6:20 or lower.........u need a 1:25 to net 5's......hot tracks, minimum prep, we just gotta roll with that....LOVE the car.....PEACE to you my brother!!!

[@TimothyArnott-m7z]

Well that may be lofty, but in general, a 1.25 60'.....will net 5:80's/5:90's all day......ur VERY close...........with proper prep....LOVE it brother!!!
