went drag racing

I went drag racing at rock falls raceway.
my 95 f150 ex cab short box with a 302 ran 16.75@80m/h with a K&N, BBK trottle body and shorty headers. in 90 degre weather is that good or not.

Your times sound great...the best I have gotten is a 17.0@77.66mph in 93 degree weather with over 90% humidity. Im going tomorrow and I'll let you know what I run, I hope the conditions are better.

I ran in the same conditions. I have not advanced the timing or any thing i was on street tires and had a hard time geting traction
I have an auto trans. which I'm thinking of putting a shift kit in does that make a big differeance also what about the timing it says on the hood it can't be ajusted the truck runs great. also does any one have any info on a chip for my truck

That sounds pretty respectable for an extended cab truck. My f-150 with the I6 probably runs about 20 seconds in the quarter. Although i do have a dodge truck with a v6 running high 13's
