Driving an 88 Thunderbird!
BBF powered looks badass. Ill post pics in the AM!
That is all.
Bah, lookin at the hot rod website, they say "...Plimpton took the win with a 8.536-second e.t. at 163.06 mph in his ProCharger supercharged, 572ci Ford-powered '89 Thunderbird."
89 Tbird? Ugh....WRONG! The pic clearly shows a fox Tbird. Thats sad when they cant even get the right BODY STYLE. It's one thing if they said 87 (even I can't really tell the difference), but 89?
EDIT: Here's a link to a video; shows the final rounds near the end. Gotta love seein a fellow fox Tbird wipin away Chevies, etc left and right :D

Nice win and 88 and 89 look nothing alike.
Dude in the Orange camaro should have just let off when it first slipped.
That's awesome!
http://www.1320video.com has a photo gallery (and his filming is a ton more professional for when you want to buy the DVD).
Nice. I liked that Viper Though.
Hopefully next year there will be a bunch of videos of me wiping the track with chebbies in my '88.
I got some pics around here of a good friends '88 TC all-motor car that runs low 8's. See if I can find 'em.....
Yes, but he was driving a Chevy, so how bright could he be? :hick:
That was an awesome video!! I've sent that link to a ton of guys already. Very nice to see the bow ties get put down. Thanks for sharing.
That Chevelle he was racing is a car I crew on. Couldn't go down there though. No money..
I was there and the T bird ran a 8.44 @ 173 MPH on Fri night.
The car was very clean. They were only running 18lbs of boost.
Said the car made around 1700 Flywheel HP.
