Todd nice times. Did you adjust the shocks for the drag runs or were they the same as for the autocross? I'm not sure how hard it is to reset them for Xcross.

I changed all the settings except the front compression. Car was pulling some G's after it hooked in 1st.

Nice showing Todd!

And.... "into the 11's" is the proper description!

BTW -- Now you see why Frank and JP are going for multiple suspensions in their "fastest whatever the F' it is car".... Road racing is different set up than auto x and is way different than drag racing...

To win at Auto X and run "INTO" the 11's first time out is smokin' good in my book. Drag radials on back - skinnies up front - 90/10 drag shocks for some weight transfer (get that nose proud boy!)... and you might take it into the 10's.

Congrats Todd on the win and getting the car to the strip! 11.95 for the first time to the track with drag radials is pretty good man. I am thinking the head wind hurt the MPH a bit. I think your car should trap mid to high 120's with the power it makes. No doubt with more practice she will be going mid to low 11's as it sits. Any vids??

Thanks guys, there is a video right above the time slips. Apparently, I'm to dense to figure out how to embed videos around here. I thought the MPH was down a litte as well. I've never chassis dynoed this motor so the jetting could be a little off. I did fatten the primary side up for drivability after a got the engine in the car. 1-2 shift is also a little sluggish. I was knocking off .2 every run. With drag slicks, I'm sure mid 11's isn't out of the question. My car is about 3780 with driver. I'll be back....

I think mid 11's as your car sits with just a bit more practice. My 408 I just sold went 11.82 at 115.8 last time out at the the track. I would really like some high 10 second passes once its dialed in. Scott's car(lS7) went 11 something at 124 with 505rwp so you should be similar. Not sure how much his cars tips the scale at??

Yeah that headwind really had to hurt because you should really be at mid 120s MPH with that power.
