I have installed poly mild steel tubular Spohn LCA, Drag sway bar, Torque Arm, K-member, Upper and lower A-arms and QA1 R shocks with 275 lb. springs in front only! I made my on travel limiters. I have stock shocks and stock springs in rear! I also have airbag in the right spring which I had before I added the Drag sway bar.

I have the front shocks set on full loose. I have the travel limiters set to allow 4 inches of travel on the front at this time! I have the rearend angle set at -2 degrees! ET Drags are set anywhere from 15 to 16.5 lbs. depending on track conditions. I have the rear airbag pumped up to 25 lbs. I have the front shocks threaded 49 threads from the bottom of the shock. I have tried to set the front end alignment for drag racing!

I Footbrake to 3,000 RPM's and wait on the last yellow stomp on the gas and go!

Hope this helps!

We had a great time at the track and came back with a new best NA and Nitrous run. The temp was 52 degrees and sunny. The DA was -150 most of the day!

I made 11 quarter mile runs starting at 1:10 PM and ending at 4:40 PM! I made 6 - NA runs and 5 - 75 HP Nitrous runs! I made 5 sets of runs two at a time 4 minutes apart except for one run where I did an in car video of the NA A/F ratio!

Here are the results!!

New best NA – 1.394 60 ft., 6.643 1/8 mile ET, 101.07 MPH and 10.532 1/4 mile ET, 125.80 MPH.New best Nitrous – 1.343 60 ft., 6.483 1/8 mile ET, 104.22 MPH and 10.254 1/4 mile ET, 129.40 MPH.

I hit the nitrous at launch and had to let off the gas pedal to about half throttle due to the car coming up off the ground higher then usual. Once it started coming back down I stomped on the go pedal to finish the run. I was told it was within 2 to 4 inches of dragging the back bumper no photo or video! I have an in car video of that run since I was taping the A/F ratio to ensure the tune was good.

I do have a trackside video of the nitrous run where the car produced a 10.353 ET at 129.51 MPH using the nitrous in 2nd and 3rd gears only.

I have attached the time slips and will post videos soon!

Thanks for the props! It has been a lot of hard work. I forgot to mention all runs were made on a 3,000 RPM footbrake launch on 26X10X15 inch ET Drags!

I could not get the LPE 2-step to work that I just installed. So no transbrake launchs this trip. Maybe next time!

Well I got the car to the track Saturday March 7, 2009 to finally try out the T-Brake with the LPE 2-step and had a blast.

I ran it 11 times at the 1/8mile track I go to in less than 4 hours. It was kind of warm out around 70 degrees with a pretty good headwind most of the day. All runs were N/A on a nitrous tune. Went to run some nitrous passes but somehow the bottle was empty. Everyone stated the two-step would make the car run more consistent and it did pretty good.

I ran 4 trans brake runs here are the results.

4:28 PM 1.473 60 foot 6.899 ET at 100.442 MPH Right Lane
5:42 PM 1.475 60 foot 6.899 ET at 100.374 MPH Left Lane
6:14 PM 1.474 60 foot 6.902 ET at no MPH Right Lane, truck wrecked and took out the MPH light at the top end of the track.
6:23 PM 1.473 60 foot 6.889 ET at no MPH Right Lane

The break down on the NA runs I grouped by 60 foot times!

2:42 PM 1.488 60 foot 6.919 ET at 100.569 MPH Left Lane
4:22 PM 1.485 60 foot 6.910 ET at 100.033 MPH Right Lane

2:45 PM 1.469 60 foot 6.876 ET at 100.550 MPH Right Lane
3:21 PM 1.472 60 foot 6.854 ET at 100.472 MPH Right Lane

6:28 PM 1.459 60 foot 6.857 ET at no MPH Right Lane
6:32 PM 1.453 60 foot 6.845 ET at no MPH Right Lane

Nice!

[vsocks1]

Strong and consistant!
What are the head/cam specs if you don't mind me asking?

[N2RACINGLS1's]

Sorry I have not checked the thread for a few days!

AFR 225 heads and very small street Comp Cam less then 235 duration and less then 615 lift!

I will be posting some videos of the trans-brake runs soon.

Race Setup vs. Street Setup LOL!

As talked about before take a look at what a car will do depending how well the track is prepped! No change at all to the car or tire combo! Weather temp was almost the same at both tracks.

First video is of two runs I posted before!

1.421 60 ft. , 4.245 330 ft. , 6.677 ET 1/8 mile at 100.78 MPH

1.394 60 ft. , 4.224 330 ft. , 6.643 ET 1/8 mile at 101.07 MPH

Second video is of my run Friday night April 3, 2009, looks like I had street tires on! Track was just not there no biggie just thought it was worth posting for folks to see.


1.614 60 ft. , 4.965 330 ft. , 7.646 ET 1/8 mile at 92.96 MPH. I was not even able to shift into third gear on this run.

Everyone,

I thought I would bring this back for a new update! I have been looking at changing from 26 inch slicks to 28 inch slicks so I could increase the nitrous shot at the ¼ mile tracks. Well I finally got under the car and moved the rearend forward and got everything reset. I then took the car to the track on October 11, 2009 to make sure it still performed with the 26 inch tires on it like it has always performed to make sure I did not mess anything up on the suspension.

Here are the results
1st run @ 2:29 PM - 1.450 60 foot, 6.819 1/8 mile ET at 101.45 MPH Left lane NA
2nd run @ 2:34 PM – 1.447 60 foot, 6.802 1/8 mile ET at 101.63 MPH left lane NA
3rd run @ 4:56 PM – 1.468 60 foot, 6.870 1/8 mile ET at 100.00 MPH left lane NA
4th run @ 4:05 PM – 1.473 60 foot, 6.876 1/8 mile ET at 100.89 MPH left lane NA
5th run @ 5:56 PM – 1.407 60 foot, 6.599 1/8 mile ET at 105.04 MPH left lane 75 Dry Shot
6th run @ 5:59 PM – 1.415 60 foot, 6.598 1/8 mile ET at 105.18 MPH left lane 75 Dry Shot

So as you can see the car worked great. I then took it home and installed the 28 inch slicks came back exactly seven days later on October 18, 2009 to the same track with almost the same weather conditions of +1600 to +1900 DA!

Here are the results

1st run @ 2:49 PM – 1.489 60 foot, 6.833 1/8 mile ET at 101.593 MPH left lane NA, too much air in tires
2nd run @ 2:52 PM – 1.452 60 foot, 6.789 1/8 mile ET at 102.039 MPH left lane NA, less air in tires
3rd run @ 3:19 PM – 1.431 60 foot, 6.545 1/8 mile ET at 106.367 MPH left lane 75 Dry Shot after launch
4th run @ 3:22 PM – 1.431 60 foot, 6.583 1/8 mile ET at 106.091 MPH left lane 75 Dry Shot after launch
5th run @ 3:56 PM – 1.389 60 foot, 6.489 1/8 mile ET at 106.655 MPH left lane 75 Dry Shot at launch

Needless to say I am very pleased with the change from 26 inch to 28 inch slicks! Here is an in car video of the 6.48 run!
