[AZSonicSnake]

[BurnTire]

Cool 11's post up that slip!

[wickedcobra]

I wish I could get into the 11's. Im sure the is capable. I guess I cant drive....:yes: Any tips on improving my 60ft? Im running a 03 Cobra with 486 to the wheels and 495 torque, Nitto DR and IRS. My best run as of now is a 12.70 at Firebird. What do you guys think?

[fazm]

nitto dr's are your prob lol

I ran 11.8 on less HP with BFG Drag radials. It is all in the technique on drag radials. Also they are too inconsistent and prone to wheel hop at the track.

Get a set of 16" MT ET Streets (not the street radials) and rev it up and let it rip for the 11's.

Do you think the IRS will hold up? or blow up............

[BurnTire]

LOL. I have stock IRS with a Billet Flow Brace.

I have run 10.8 with a 1.59 60ft time.

With your power level I wouldn't even worry about it if you have the right tires.

A set of 16" diamond racing wheels and ET Street at about 15PSI and it will not hop.

I am going to a solid axle, but that is due to the fact that I know the IRS will not hold with forever with my power level and I am tired of high 1.5's on the 60s. I want a low 1.4 for now.

This is a good setup. Ugly but effective.

Cool 11's post up that slip!

your going to love this one.

i ran it finally, but the clocks screwed up, and i have a time slip that says 10.74@116. which i think we all know is just not possible. though the 60' of 1.68 looks right. and felt like it too. but everything else on the slip looks 1 second off. including the final time.

[AZSonicSnake]

Try again...even did it twice

cool thing is, the second one is on video....

speaking of that...i have some nice video that my friends took. i will be working on uploading it...

What!?! Can you post your entire timeslip? Theres got to be something more than that even with the nittos. Something doesn't sound right there. My first time out with just an exhaust, CAI cobra was a 12.7 @111mph with regular street tires, non drag radials. Yours should be plenty quicker and faster even though you would still be traction limited with Nitto 555R's.

[fazm]

wait, am i gettin bumped down another spot on the timeslip database? i need to get to the track

well, if he is killing it in the 60' time, that would explain it. if he is spining, which we know he is with that power and those tires, that would explain the time. i just can't explain my constant 1.7 60' times with the 12.2-12.3 that i keep running. i think i need to adjust my shift points....

[BurnTire]

Only lift slightly and shift at 6000-6200.

[AZSonicSnake]

not wanting to speedshift...not my cup of tea. but i have had the shift light set at 6500, so i assume that has been a big part of my problem.

[BurnTire]

6500 may be a little high for the eaton.

I used 6000 on the eaton and 6200 on the whipple.

they did not record my best run of the night, but this was a close second....

Nice runs. You got the speed Tony. Start banging those gears!

[Indy]

:yes:Nice runs guys!:woot2:

I would say killing the 0' time is and understatement. I ran a 2.6 60ft with a .834 reaction time. Pathetic. I will take the advise given here and put some MT ET street on it and give it a try. Whats a set of those gonna run with some rims? Im gonna install and spec 3 + clutch in the next 2 weeks unless you guys have other recommendations.

[OH3MGSVT]

aw damn it, i though this 9/11 thing was actually going to be on 9/11...otherwise i would have gone out if i would have known it was last night..oh well, nice run fellas :twothumbsup:

[AZSonicSnake]

jeff- i think i am getting though em a little better everytime out. i cannot bring myself to leave my foot on the gas at all when i shift. and plus knowing now that my shift points are off, i am fairly sure that is costing me time to. i barely get into fouth before going past the line, so i have to believe that is costing me something.

wickedcobra- i would recommend that clutch, thats what i have. but be sure to add the ldc freeplay clutch mod and you will be very happy.

[Craig]

Nice runs! Wish I could have made it out there.

Tubes if you want to run them are about $120 a pair.



MT also makes a 17" ET street that will fit stock rims but I think that would be lacking with the reduced sidewall.

[4doorfoxy]

Definately a fun night.... and dinner after, way too much fun in some of our sleep deprived states!

I've got several pictures of Tony and a few of you other guys but they are still on my camera so I'll post them up as soon as I can upload them and get them online.

[AZSonicSnake]

god i wish that was true....

YouTube - not (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHZ33F25a-s)


little recap on the video, i deep staged, tried to put it in reverse to get the other light back on, tree started as i was in the middle of tryin that, so i jambed it back into first ran it up to 4 grand a dropped the clutch. well for some reason, after putting my tranny in reverse it like me to cycle 1-2 before getting moving. so having not done that, it would not go into second. and thus the long blank in there. not like it mattered, the clocks completely f-d up anyways.

[BurnTire]

Ah I have a 10.88 so I am still not beat. LOL

[AZSonicSnake]

you want me to post the 10.74 time slip too? i am not joking....

[BurnTire]

[4doorfoxy]

yeah once I get mine up to par I'll be bringing it out.... but with my funding situation it may be a while before that happens, certainly not going near the track in its current condition. hell, won't even pass tech with the busted windshield lol
