Shattered My Old Record

[Brando56894]

Not once, But Twice! :shock:

i started off crappy with a 16.4 and later i felt like i got a good launch and saw the time: 15.344 @89.77 and that made me pretty happy. about a 1.5 hours or so later, i nearly crapped myself when i saw my time: 15.194 @90.54! (theres a 15.18x somewhere in my car, which was actually my best run, but idk where it is)

this was just from intake,exhaust, !cat, !front seat, !spare and jack and a half tank of gas (i filled my tank two days ago, now wish i hadn't :lol: )

with tires/DRs, a stall, 4.10 gears, a tune and slight weight redux i should easily be into the mid 14s :mrgreen:

heres the slip:
RT .286
60' 2.261
330 6.384
1/8 9.764 @ 73.07
1k 12.694
1/4 15.194 @ 90.54

haha thanks, when are you taking out that beast of yours? :mrgreen:

wtf... that's flying for where you should be lol. Nice.

tell me about it, suprised the hell out of me!

wat car is that?

2001 3.8L W68 Firebird. only major mods are intake,exhaust and !cat (those are pretty much the only mods ATM :lol: )

wow dude...well done! now spray da bitch

[Brando56894]

[evil laugh] possibly [/evil laugh] id rather have constant power first

after the tires, im probably gonna do LCAs or something else to improve my 60' and then either a 3200 stall or try to find a slightly used rear that has an LSD/posi in it with 4.10s. i think the latter would make more sense to do first.

edit: after looking at my car today im suprised at how little rubber is actually on the wheel well (theres only a little bit on the rear driver's side wheel well, no where else)

[Teds89IROC]

wow impressive!

:stupid:

You should be able to get a 2.0 60' outta her with some more practice, and that's good for a 14 second slip with no other changes.

the trap speed is there to get you into the 14's now, i would say a mid 14.8 to high 14.7 if you can get the 60' times down a bit.
with the car trapping that well i would suggest making your next mod something traction related, like a good torque arm. it will make the car handle and drive better at the track and on teh street :)

[Demonicbird00]

Congrats!!

theres a 14 in it as is just wait for good air and a better 60'

i had !sway bar,!rear seats,LCAs,1 peice DS,cutout and homade CAI and went 14.88 @ 92 w/ my 97 v6 bird w/ a PB of 94mph on one run

yea i figured if i didnt have a half tank of gas i could of broken into the 14s, the next mods are most likely gonna be good tires,LCAs and then probably a torque arm. we'll see where that gets me. but before i do any of this i gotta pay my mom back the grand or so i owe here :lol:

[trashman01]

Trailer hitch for the traction mod! :w00t: Nice run regardless of the traction.
