Mopar To Release Lost A-Body 1/4 Mile Test Results

What was cool about DC was they gave you a shopping list of parts to have to make ET ranges. If you wanted a 13 to 14 second 340 Dart, use this stuff. If you wanted it to 12 to 13 seconds, use this. On down the line to 10 second range and quicker. I always found it worked. In fact, my experience was I would be on the fast side of the table so there was plenty of cushion. I still have that "bible" and would never part with it. A lot of racing and dreaming memories in that book!
They also gave great formulas to show what ET could be predicted from MPH. Man, did I use that a lot and it is where I learned a lot. Today I use a simple formula of 1320 / MPH. It always seems to PO some people but those that can accept it become better racers. At least as far as the car goes.
