Went to the drags friday night with a friend. saw some cool mopars.
a 58 Dodge Coronet with a 500 inch supercharged big block street driven decent car. 
A 383 Mopar powered 32 bantam altered
a one owner 70 Road Runner 440 
unfortunately none of our 62-63 cars.
Greg Golt though who has a 66 Belevedere with an Old Reliable engine with Edelbrock heads (a reasonable substitute for those who dont want to do the head work) has emailed . He is going to the track today with slicks on . His last venture netted him a tire spinning smoking 11.95 so I am guessing he will turn an 11.40 or so with the slicks. Time will tell. 
This is a daily driver now not a dedicated race car.
Engine is from the book exact except he has the Racer brown St-H-42 hydraulic cam which is what we recommend for serious street  use.
I think I need another race car! My wife has forbidden slicks or racing with the 63 Dodge. Why I don't know. But I accidently agreed when we were building it (and" a promise made is a debt unpaid") I think she is afraid if I race it ,it will be come a race only car and she wont get to enjoy it. (and she is probably right.)
By The way drove a 66 Cornet wagon witrh 100000+ plus on it to Florida and back in 1980. Lent my 75 valiant brougham V8 to my insurance agent and he wrote it off a week before we were to go so I bought the wagon off of a local car dealers back lot junk row and we headed for Florida. We felt like Ma and Pa Kettle.
Paid $150 for it , bought 2 new rear tires and off we went. The 318 expired and couple of months after returning so I installed a 360( $100). Sold the car for $1200. Still I wish I had kept it.
Oh yeah from Belleville Ontario to Bellville Florida is about 1400 Miles. We took it as far south as Ft Lauderdale.
