        Nice runs and IMO 1/8th mile is where it's at. Racing (growing up) 1/8th mile helped me in the 1/4. 1/8th is the launch and the first couple shifts.....1/4 is just sit and wait for the end of the track.

        Just for reference....my car runs 8.6 in the 1/8th @ 84.99 mph


        And 13.33 @ 104.8 in the 1/4



        I'd like to see a b3 in the 9's

        were you spraying it?

            Eurotiva,your right about the 1/8 mile racing,it all happens there, ever notice that Top Fuel only gains maybe 35 or 40 mph after the 1/8,races are won or lost at the starting line,a .00 light a good launch and kiss the other guy goodby,put it in the win column unless the other guy is a bagger,I HATE baggers, put it on the wood and let her eat.
            An idea can turn to dust or magic, depending on the talent that rubs against it.

                  Well put. I can pull alot of cars in the 1/4 mile because of my 1/8th mile experience.

                    I may have to up to a 40-50 shot to get the a/f in check,Ive got my B8 together on the stand was going to swap it tommorow but Im rethinking it now its fun to get what i can out of the little motor.

                    whats the fastest B3 that you guys have seen?
