Very nice times by the end of next mouth in some cool -DA you should have A 11sec slip nice work.

Thanks Rob - the D/A was 995ft - much better than the 2400ft air I've been running in!

Nice run.... What mods????

FTRA - SLP Lid - Fast 78mm intake/tb
Ebay headers - xs y-pipe - magnaflow cat back (runs were thru the exhaust)
Tick Master - Monster level 3 clutch - Midwest chassis 9"
QA1's up front, UMI SFC, lowers, and Sphoon drag bar -26x11.5x15 et streets
Tuned by me ;)

Great times and video! What RPM are you launching at? Do you just dump the clutch and floor it?

No cam??????

5500rpm off the 2-step - so the gas pedal is on the floor and I dump the clutch.

No cam??????

Nope - bolt-ons only, doesn't have a underdrive pulley either.

VERY nice my friend:nod: I bet that 9 inch and clutch really help out your times because you can launch so well.

Nice run!

it's takes the abuse - that's for sure.

Nice run!

Thanks man - to bad you didn't release your drag bar a few weeks earlier, it would have been on my car for sure. I've always had great luck with UMI parts.

nice times. What track is that??

Nicely done.

nice times. What track is that??

Mid Michigan Motorplex - in Stanton.

Thanks - performinnorman

how much did she walk around at the top end, (if at all) with those tires?

None at all - I do have sportsman fronts as well (bias) - I think that helps as well.

same setup as me, good deal

Nice run. I can't launch for shit. my 60 ft never goes under 2 sec :/

So any plans for the future to cut down your time before you go to cam or spray? Maybe UD Pulley, descreen maf or taking out your passenger seat, rear seat, spare and jack? Maybe try a cut out?

I've got an underdrive pulley on the way.

Considering a cutout - I just hate messing with the exhaust.

The jack and the spare tire are gone. I might take out the back seat.....

I got an 85mm maf off ebay - so if that ever shows up - I'll throw that on with a FTP lid.

The 60' could use some work too - that'd get me there alone, if it'd go a low 1.6

Cutout and UDP installed...

nice, keep us updated.

nice, keep us updated.

Will do....we got rained out this Sunday. Hopefully next Sunday will be nice.

looking forward to it.
:cheers:

which monster clutch do you run?

He runs a level 3 monster.

Thats what I just put in :D

You'll like it.

Mine was a bitch the 1st 50 miles and then started coming around.

It's supposed to rain this Sunday as well :( - and the track is only open for one more week after that.

nice run, what gears do you have?

What is your weight at?

4.10 gears

Right around full weight. I've only removed the air pump and front sway bar. They haven't had the scales working when I've been at the track.

That's a good time, especially for full weight..

Mine is getting farther and farther from full weight :D

I know it'd go faster if I gutted it, that's just not my thing. Been there done that.

noone said anything about gutting.. just nicely lightened...:D stock appearing is the way to go

damn son! Your car runs its nuts off :lol:

Weather is looking good.

Clear sky - 0 wind - 26*F - and best of all -1400ft D/A right now.

I'm hoping that it'll stay that low for a few passes. :)

Denied - :bang:

Best pass of the day:
60 - 1.707
330 - 4.974
1/8 - 7.688
MPH - 90.52
1000 - 10.042
1/4 - 12.023
MPH - 114.14

I made seventeen passes today - yes 17!

They started @ the 12.18 range and I worked my way down to the low 12.0x range

I got my best 60' yet - 1.686 but the wind must have picked up on that pass, as it netted a 12.07.

Best MPH was 114.53

Video will be uploaded as soon as I can figure out which one it is.

DANG, that sucks to be going 12.0x! That DA is nasty too... good runs either way, but the 11.9x would have been sick!

D/A on my best pass was -200ft.

Good run... your spinning pretty good on the hit though.. do you have adjustable shocks?

Just on the front.

Without the spin the car slows down. It'll 60ft better but the 330' suffers from it bogging.

Tried slipping it out?

Yup - my car likes the shock of being dropped.

Thats interesting... I wish I had a rear so I could figure out if my car liked being dropped lol

It' helps!

FWIW these times are done with the stock non hurst shifer - with a cheap ebay short stick.

Found an issue with my 60 ft

boggin :nod:

boggin :nod:

Nope watch the tire - it gets hit and flattens, then bounces up immediately unloading, cause it to spin then hook.

I'm hitting the tires to hard. I need to soften the hit.

I didn't notice that, but I was referring to how your front drops around the time your getting to the tree, and then comes back up, you can hear it too if you listen. In my opinion you should tighten up the front shocks some to keep the front from dropping..

Damn man, so close to a 11.999999 lol. Good luck

After talking with a 1Badair - I decided to change my suspension setup. I put the lowers back in the stock hole.

The car didn't have any traction issues. This was the only pass I got a little spin on, and it didn't bog bad. After this pass I fought bogging hard for the rest of the day.

No 11's for me this year....

Good time. Need a bit of work on the 60'. Spin some maybe?
