[Scott]

Looked good, are you guys using a digital 7 in that car?

[90 notch]

nope. lorenzo

[Vitoman]

man! Thats great guys! That is the best I have ever seen that car move out!

[Ninesecsnake]

Looks like you figured out some power management. Good Job Guys!! I have one question, the mph seems low for an 8.20 did it lay over on top? Congrats guys its been a long time coming.

[NitrousMike]

I would say its gear related. Doesnt seem low at all

[69gt4speed]

:supz: Congrarts on the fast run, hopefully warm up a bit and go a lower et.

[snickerlicker]

Mph is spot on. It's not a Supra he's driving..... That car pushes alot of air going down the track. Has the same aerodynamics as a brick, but still gets it done!!! Get a lane biatch!!!

[Blowuaway]

Now that's POWER! Way to go Chris and Stevo.

[FiFdYnUtZ]

congrats!

[Guch]

MPH isn't low. Just getting it done on both ends of the track!

[UWILOSE]

MPH isn't low. Just getting it done on both ends of the track!

good job guys
mph is off.the car at that ET will be running 5.20s 139 to 143mph 1/8 mile and running 8.20s on the back end at 174 to 180mph.. i am with Ryan the car had to lay over on the top end with the mph. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKJh-1F1DbE

[Scott]

Hasnt the car done a 1.0x 60' before??

[snickerlicker]

Uwilose put your set-up in a 65 Mustang and see how much your mph drops off.... Frontal area makes a HUGE difference in mph!!! Lorenzo's only gonna keep going quicker/faster once some timing gets rolled into that bitch!! E.T. Wins the race, not mph....Don't hate, congratulate!!!

[90 notch]

not this shit again!lorenzo. p.s. mother fuckers get a lane!

[allgo]

Hasnt the car done a 1.0x 60' before??

You been smoking some of the devils lettuce??

[DustinsDuster]

i believe that was some kind of mistake on that one pass- it was a while back though; i dont remember it clearly.

[Scott]

LOL not in a loong time, obviously I know its not true! just a little thing I heard about the "mystery time slip" last year.. I know theres lots left in it and there has been for a long time, I video taped a pass of it running 174mph 2 years ago I believe. It sounds to me like its riding on a adjustable rev limiter for a few seconds at the start of the run trying to limit power but I honestly have no idea :? My car wont certify to run faster than a 8.5 and I honestly doubt it ever will so I'll leave that low 8 second stuff for other people!! Good job Chris that pass looked awesome

[Caleb]

What happened to the Camino on the 28th when it went to make a pass and something shit out on it?

[Ninesecsnake]

All that im saying is for an 8.20 and what looks to be a decent 60ft that car should mph higher than it did. That just my experience with turbo cars, with that 98mm hair dryer Chris's car will go much faster than an 8.20 and im not questioning the 8.20 I was simply making an observation. I'm sure he will be back at the track soon and go faster.

By comparison my car has done a best of 135 in the 1/8 and almost 170 in the 1/4 at 3700lbs on radials, the best way to tell if a big turbo car falls off on the top is to watch the mph gained between the 1/8th and the 1/4, it should always be 30+ or something's wrong. Like I said this is just my experience take it as you will.

Congrats again Chris and Steve.

[snickerlicker]

BTW, It picked up almost 34 mph between the 1/8th and the 1/4....Id say it pulled up top just fine.

I was told it did 140 in the 1/8th, guess that was the wrong info.

[OldSkoolRCR]

Looks like you figured out some power management. Good Job Guys!! I have one question, the mph seems low for an 8.20 did it lay over on top? Congrats guys its been a long time coming.
Heres the slip.

“Welcome to the Internet.

You post a time slip, someone wants a dyno sheet. You post a dyno sheet, someone wants a time slip. You post both, and everyone calls BS.”

I set my timer. :biggrin:

man that brick is moving. great work. I give Chris big props, for building, welding and finishing such an awesome car. I am a welder for a living and hes awesome at what he does. No store bought shit there. fuck the haters lol. Its like taking my dually down the track with the towing mirrors all the way out.

[allgo]

Shit that looks fake as hell..lol haters everywhere beware...

[Scott]

Man you guys must be blind, everyone has been congratulating him, everyone that has seen the car run knows it has the power and was a matter of time before it ran a good number. Your creating the haters :banghead:

[Ninesecsnake]

Again good job guys, the hard work payed off. It should really fly with the 101, why not go right to a 106 they are the same physical size and cost? If you need a 101-106 let me know I'll get you a good price.

[FiFdYnUtZ]

lol they cant handle the compliments so they are finding something to argue about..

[Ninesecsnake]

That's with a 91mm not a 98.......101 coming soon!steve o

Is that still the same turbo you guys got from Eric? If so that was a 98.

[90 notch]

Eric sold us a 91mm,we measured the wheel a million times!

[snickerlicker]

^ OH SNAP

[UWILOSE]

Eric sold us a 91mm,we measured the wheel a million times!

Steve i sold ya a 98mm from my friend's pro 5.0 car.Back in the day the only turbo they could run was a 98mm.but good job now it time to play

[allgo]

lol they cant handle the compliments so they are finding something to argue about..

Those are back handed compiments by the way..

[slow ride]

Good job guys. When's it coming back up to CF so I can see it run?

[90 notch]

well my 98mm measures 3.582 from tip to tip . seriously didnt mean to start anything it is what it is!lorenzo.

[OldSkoolRCR]

Dam!!! 91-98-102 who gives a flying fuck, the car ran dam good, and I am sure has more left in it, shit it is MAY, not NOV. plenty of track days left.

[allgo]

Lorenzoo just use big hp little measuring stick..lol

[BIGDRO]

congrats fellas on a damn good pass ----and tell the rest to just sit beside you and see if it's falling off on the top end
