James, you know I know too, you've been in the other lane more than once watching me carry the front wheels on my Chevelle past the 60 foot clocks and what I have posted will do exactly as I have stated.

I am sure there are guys running quicker 60's than me with first gen camaro, 9" tires and are able to the control their wheel stands, i am just not there yet.
There are and perhaps you missed the photo of my former Chevelle. It had 10" tires as does the '69 Camaro I've refered to. Neither have wheelie bars, both hook in a car wash and they've been 1.28 and 1.27 respectively in 60 foot off the footbrake.

Again, if Garret wants a wheelie bar, he'll get a wheelie bar. I'm just advising him as I have been for the last decade, that he don't need a wheelie bar to control his wheelstands.

Put the wheelie bar on, and start tuning. Can you post some time slips from this chevelle, especially the 1.28 60 foot slip. Thanks.

No, the car was sold in 2008 and the 1.28 recorded in 2007.

Here's the launch photo of that run...



the time slip is in the hands of Bret Schlichtig, owner/driver of the car in the other lane, who works for Grumpy at Jenkins Competition.

Well you haven't seen it run "low 10's" since 2007 when it last had the 468 under the hood and if you've seen it run several times you must be a division 1 bracket racer so who are you?

BTW, it ran a best of 10.07





with my pump gas, cast iron oval port headed 468 under the hood.
