Take lots of pictures of that bikini contest!! 1500 to win should bring out some pretty decent ones. What intervals do they setup timers and and give you speed?

It has a lot more left in it I think. The setup is the same as before nothing changed.

Hey Guys, Good day at the Track. I was easy on the car, everyone wanted me to dip into the 9's but after my 4th pass I was done for the day.

Track had a 20mph head wind and the MPH everyone said was 3-5mph low on everyones setup. here was my passes

11.2@134,11.1@137,10.5@141,10.2@144.97

after the first 2 I rased my 2 step so it launched better but still only in the 1.6x as i was sliping the clutch. I am runing pump gas and I put in some Torco Additive just to be on the safe side but I think the car would be fine without it. boost was just under 13psi, Timing was 14 Degrees max on that I really got the feel for the car as the passes went on and I started to shift better. Im still shifting "normal" and not No lift a shifting, that would pick up some MPH here but I like my new trans to much to be mean to it. Car Has easy 150mph in it on pump gas with no wind at a good track. I think some Et Drag Tires and me dumping the clutch it should pull high 1.4's and dip into the 9.7's pretty easy. if not C16 is my next option. And to Ryan Yes it still has massive 1.32 hotsides. The car is a odball it works on the dragstrip and its built for the mile.

I did end up making a 60-130mph run with the V-box after my passes and the track was not preped, she spun really good and I had 2 shifts but still pulled a 6.41 Not to bad, I think it has a 5.9 or 6.0 60-130 in it with 2 shifts. Its not geared perfect for that type of time trial like the Lambos and GTR's are.

As to the Dyno, it was dissapointing, 89 Degrees temp with 70% humidity Boost was down to 11psi and they gave me 20 seconds to Adjust the AEM on the fly, I ended with around 12psi on the dyno. Acording to everyone there the dyno was a heartbreaker that day only 2-3 cars were over 1000hp and some Bad ass shit dynoed. For Refrance a Kenne Bell 2.8 Cobra with every mod in the book dynoed 545. the verduct was 60-80whp low on the dyno witch would be about right for my Weight and trap speed at the track the next day.

I had assumed the car was fast, but that is crazy.

Glad even with the "poor" numbers you are having a great time.

Definitely more in it Jesse, glad you got it down to a 10.2! Every pass you were getting better and better. Time for a little more boost, no headwind, and some more practice and 9's should be there in no time! Had a great time with everyone down there. It's insane how many 4 digit HP cars are there..

Wow that's awesome man. Like you said, for a car built for the mile, bottom-10's is crazy!

Looks like I've got some work to do..

Some work and a whole lotta hoping that you don't toss in some race gas and crank up the boost :)

I Just want to cut a good 60foot on this pump gas map with no head wind. a 1.62 LOL can you tell it was only my 4th pass ever?

c_mart_28
03-20-2012, 05:25 PM
It should make for a fun shootout if we're all able to make it.

Congrats again on your pass over pass improvements. I bet you can't wait to get it out again!

For a car that doesn't appear to be setup for the drag strip suspension wise, a very high torque setup, with IRS, and 4th trip down the track, yup I'm serious. I'd call that a good 60'. I mean its no mustang, but....:flirt:

I dont know about that, the IRS vipers with a stick are hauling some serious ass. Im certain I have seen 7 seocnd passes with a TT stick IRS viper on youtube before, definetly cant baby it though any fast stick car is a pretty violent

It's still at least decent for a normal guy with his own car that doesn't want to splatter the diff, etc. I'm sure it could get into the high 1.4's and that would be a great 60 for that car.

Jappbox
03-22-2012, 06:24 PM
Car has cut 1.4's before with a supercharger setup on ET Drags. The diff is built for it and I have extra Unitrax Axles I just got. Im curious how the single disk clutch will like the clutch dump. and finding a track that will be sticky enough. I know the 60 can be improved, and I know the tune can be uped as well so its no where near maxed out on anything. The only thing to be scared of is the stock longblock above 16psi
