    Correct.
    Marauder vs. Vicky. I'm hoping. That's provided I rebuild the transmission AND install the supercharger by then. Regardless, if I fix the trans, I'll run it.
    But Tank vs. Vicky is a guaratee, though.

      Took it again earlier tonight. This time I waited for my friends, and got there late, again, only one run in. However, it was my best to date. 15.30 @ 90.07mph. Mind you this is much better than last time. The kicker? I had a little less than 3/4 of a tank of gas tonight at the strip, and about 1/8 last time...

          Nice! Both times I went to the track with friends, I would be the one with the toolboxes and the others would carry the slicks and jacks. We would empty out the Buick of all the unecessary things and run that car. Do you empty your car before going to the track or do you run with all of the tools and such inside? Just curious.

            I used to run it with the shit in the trunk. Now trunk is emptied before I head over there. I drop off my stuff at my friend's house and from there it's like a 10 mile drive to the dragstrip from there. Sunday, 14s or bust lol...

                Me too. I think it's doable, even if it's a 14.999 lol

                  A 14.999 is STILL a 14! Good luck!

                        On a lovely 70 degree Sunday, the car ran a 15.35 @ 89.04mph.

                        Today the distributor crapped out. Luckily it decided to die in the parking lot of my work. So I just swapped out the bad distributor with one that I had in case of such an emergency. When I took the cap off, I noticed that part of the white insulation had broken off and was laying under the reluctor wheel. I'm not sure if that's what killed it or not. But at this point, I honestly don't care, the car's running again.

                          guess it was bust and the dizzy busted.
