First Pass at the Dragstrip with new engine
 

After fighting tuning issues most of the weekend at LS Fest, I finally managed a somewhat decent pass on Sat. night. This is on full auto-x/road race set-up.
Went 11.15 @ 127.6 with snail like 2.0 60ft with some wheel spin in 1st and 2nd gear.

A 10 second street car is very respectable. Congrats! :thumbsup:

Thanks Jody, Kurt's wheels are already spinning, he was blabbing about a 2 step, this.....that. Lol!

Come on Tim where's the video? :popcorn2:

Sorry, I didn't take one, I was too busy bothering Mike Norris trying to get a handle on the tune. Dan Ballard said it was shooting flames out of the exhaust on every shift, so it would of made a cool video.

So being this is a protouring car, what do you meen? get another tenth out of it no prob or if you put drag slicks on it for another tenth's or more?

Curious as I: A- Love this car, B- Love seeing protouring cars do the 1/4 mile dance too...

Wanted to do mine at Sonoma this summer but haven't had the chance.

Mike, if I get a little more time on the strip with this engine combo to work out the launch, I can get it in the 10's, I was able to 60 ft in the 1.7-1.8 range with the old engine. Every tenth you drop on your 60 ft equals 2-3 tenth's in et. I think if I added a 2 step I might get into the mid 10's.

Awesome Tim. That's the coolest Ls motor I have seen. It sounds evil too.

Tim, if we could have ran Friday night and got a good look at what the suspension was doing, and then run Saturday night, and change a few things you would have been in the 10's.

Thanks Eric.
Dan, I'm sure your right but considering the issues I was fighting with, I had no desire to mess with the shock settings. I wish I could of had more passes in the right lane, it was definitely better than the left.

Fast and the Furious nossss kit aye? cheater. LOL



J/K

:lol: :D

Awesome!! I'll second Jody on the fact that a 10 sec street car (THAT CAN TURN CORNERS!) is VERY respectable!!:thumbsup:

Tens all day long. That's impressive. Flywheel hp?

672hp at the end of the parasitic point (RWHP)......

760 at the flywheel with all the accessories.

Looks like you are knocking on the door to take the title away from Ron's stang. I think he ran a 10.96 at 132 on KDW's.

I would like to see both of you line up...that would be a hoot!

Payton, sounds like fun to me too!

You can't let Ron beat you........ He only has $5K in that Mustang!:poke:

:G-Dub:

Yeah right, I'm pretty sure he has more than that in the brakes at this point. :_paranoid I'm sure Ron is a better drag racer than I am as well but it will be fun to give her a go.
