Here is a clip of member Padre's car at the track the 1/8 mile with street tires, without stalling it up, Padre tells us it just stands still if he stalls it up. Hot humid day in GA

What kind of video file is this? I can't play it.

That's Real Media... BLEH

I won't install RM... too bad too, because I would like to see that vid.

Can we get a WMV format please?

I will try to convert it to a wmv file i choose not to use wmv due to they just dont know how to make the files as small as .rm it will be about 2 megs larger.

Wow, that thing sounds great. I want to be a movie star like him!

I was a little disappointed at his 8.29 time, though. I expected more out of 510 horsepower. Still, that's way faster than my 9.38 in the 1/8th. And as you said, conditions were not the best.

What do you mean by "stall it up"? You mean hold the brake while you give it some gas to "pre-load" the rear end?

Exactly. It works well with drag-slicks and a higher-stall converter. I'm still on street tires because I haven't beefed-up the rear-end yet, but I wasn't unhappy with my 1.9 60-foot times.

To put it in perspective, my automatic WRX ran 1.8 60's, 8.3 @ 75 in the 1/8th, and 13.1 @ 104 in the 1/4. At this same track with my WRX, I once holeshot a modded Cobra who ran ~8.2 @ 88 (!!!) in the 1/8th. IOW, these cars are meant for the big end in the 1/4, so I'm expecting much more impressive times.

Alas, it'll be a couple of weeks before I get any official times (rained out here in West Texas ), but you'll appreciate this, Florit: El Paso has a cruise and heads-up racing at an airport on Sunday nights. It's gonna be fun.

Thank you... it doesn't have to be WMV, just anything besides RM
