On behalf of Tom Duncan,
Tom's best run is 12.02 at 116 mph, I think.
He usually runs in the 12.30s at 114 mph range.
His Tiger has a 289 + .060 off the shelf cast pistons, Edelbrock
Performer RPM heads and intake, and flat tappet solid cam,
Also a wide ratio Trans and 4.11 gears in a 9 inch Ford rear.
...and with 13" dia wheels and slicks under the unflaired fenders, single
metallic disc, 1800 # clutch,
he can lift the front wheels nicely!
...And THAT is ALL Throttle, without the bottle.
...He has NOS but has found that with a stick, it is more trouble than
it is worth,
plus it puts him in different class requiring more safety stuff.
