Got some results and a nice video of my new PB well had a bunch of PB today actually :)

Pretty close fellas. Results towards the bottom and will get video up ASAP. Was a PERFECT day. Nine runs in all and could have gotten many more. Hot lapped the last four runs. Not sure of DA but it was 56 degrees, sunny and very few cars out there. Pulled right in after my long drive and got teched in. I didnt touch anything and lined right up to get warmed up.

Was a LOT of fun. I hooked up with a cool kid wit a Jeep SRT8 stroked to 7.0 or 426 ... We ran about 6 of these runs together maybe 7. First run we did together we looked over at each other right before the 1/4 marker smiled and gave thumbs up. I was getting him on every run but we got very close a couple times. In fact my PB was 11.8 to his 11.9. My trap was always a good 3 MPH faster and I was pulling him up top every time of course. Last 4 runs were all done in 1 minutes every one we ran side by side. Was fun stuff ! Nothing like pulling a AWD stroked SRT8 off the line to make your day. I felt a little bad for him. He said he spent about $16K to mod that truck like that. Ouch. I didnt have the heart to tell him I paid 17K for my whole car with mods included :)

Please note that Sac is now reading low by 2-3 MPH. Confirmed by lots of V-box users and I confirmed it today. My V-box Et was slow by maybe half a tenth but my MPH was 117-118 all day long. According to the track my back half numbers would only be 20 MPH which as you all know is BS. 23 MPH back half at the minimum. Lots of other experienced drivers said the same thing. Their 8th was dead on but 1.4 was down a good 2-3 MPH. This has been pretty well known for some time now. The track used to read 2-3 MPH high ..... Must have just guessed where to place the beams to "fix" it LOL...


1# Ran a 12.2 @ 114 MPH / 2.0xx 60 foot.

Cooled her off a bit then ran again.

#2 12.12@115.26 / 1.92 7.89 8th @ 95.7 MPH

#3 11.915 @115.25 / 1.902 7.707 8th @94.99 MPH Yay 11s I am happy camper now :turbonaug

#4 11.849@115.37 / 1.852 7.641 @ 94.94 MPH PB for the night :)

Went back out after only 15 minute cool down.. was too excited

#5 11.858@115.17 1.868 7.65@95.05 :) Pretty damn close to last run, no fluke at least.

#6 12.43@110 / 2.0 8.1@93 MPH RAN OUT OF GAS ON PASS LITERALLY :bomb: Totally cut out on me before the 1.4 marker and I let off . Coasted in behind stands on got a couple gallons from someone.


Let the hot lapping begin !! Only 10 minute later I get another run. Would have been sooner but had to refuel LOL

#7 11.909@115.64 / 1.907 7.71@95.08

3 minutes later (yes 3 minutes) I tried a new burnout method and tried stabbing the throttle right away without any success. Was fun spinning most of 1st gear down the track.

#8 12.66@114.49 / 2.11 8.3@90.6

time for one last run before it closes ! TWO minutes later !!

# 9 12.026@115.85 / 1.993 7.87@94.90 No apparent heat soaking with my heater core mod I'd say. Was highest trap of the night for me.

All in all I am very pleased with my results. Clearly with a better driver or better setup this car can get to 11.4-11.5 range. A 1.7 60 foot would have netted a 11.55-11.6 if every tenth on your 60 gives .15 in the 1/4. Good driver should be able to pull a 1.6 with the stall I would think. I also didnt touch my tire pressure. It was at 22 PSI. Thinking I should have tried 18-20. I am running NT05-Rs.

I have decided to get a smaller pulley instead of cam for now. Mainly because it will cost me $100 and give me an extra 25-30 WHP :turbonaug good bang for the buck. Not getting any KR at all so I am going for it.

Thank you, it felt pretty darn good. I would have been pretty sad if it didnt break 11s. 11.85 was even better. Really happy with my 8th mile too 7.6@95 MPH.
