Tbi motor built in my 89 Firebird
So my buddy and I put a 350 tbi motor his dad built for me in my firebird. We put a 4th gen rear in it at the same time. Last night I took it to Beaver Springs Drag Strip to see what it ran. I have never ran a car at a drag strip before, only ever ran motorcycles. So we figured it would be interesting. First time I got up and ran a 14.3 @ 96 mph. Not too bad. That was without launchingt it at all. They rushed everything at the drag strip so I only got to run the car twice because they do bracket racing. Well second time I dialed in at a 13.9. I launched the car and spun clear through first, clear through second, and chirpted them going into third. End up running a 14.8 @ 96 mph. I was knocked out so I didnt get to run again. But on the way home we run into this Lancer Evo 8... he wanted to play cuz he kept honking at me. Well my buddy was like if he has anything done he will destroy us... which I agree with him.. well I let him go flying by me. We get into this little town called mifflinburg and I give him alittle noise and let him hear the car. Well we decide to follow him and play around. We get out of town and there is a straight with a car infront of him. I knew he was going to pass the car so I was like alright, I got down into third. He went out around the car so I followed, he didnt even pull on me and he was all over it. I think he might have even downshifted to second. Then I think he got scared because he never got on it at all again.
