Nice times man! Getting closer....

- Justin

yea if i held it together on that last pass i definately woulda seen a 13.0x at least

You are very consistant in the 13.2's . I think ull break 13.0's if u keep trying before the season is over.

Nice vid Jon, congrats on the new best. Your lucky she spun off the line lol j/k

lol i know...i was expecting a loss to be honost :D

If I was driving you just might have not been surprised on the outcome. My R/Ts all night were in the red light-.1 range all night. She did a decent burnout and still spun when I never have so I guess it's time for some DRs or something lol. If I go again soon I'll let ya know so we can knock our race out.

:rofl:

did the shifter knob come off???

What tire psi are you running in the front tires? Crank them up to 50...... maybe that will get you a 13.1?

Maybe take the time to index the plugs too?

You are damn close!

nah shifter knob was good...my car doesnt suck, cuz ya know, its not a neon :laugh:

front tires are at 40psi(sidewall says 44psi max)

index the plugs?

ummm, go back to the track and repete whatever you did on the last run. i jsut did the math on that last pass and it comes out to a 12.929 based on the 1/8 numbers.

congrats on the new bests, now go get the big one!!!!

put the fronts at 50-55 when you get to the track. max PSI as rated is based on maximum load weight under maximum temperature conditions. basically, that is the msot air the tires coudl handle on an august afternoon in death valley if you put about 3000lbs of load on each tire. short duration like a drag race will barely make the tire temp rise 1 or 2 degrees on even the hottest day, there is no threat of damaging the tire unless you run over something.

plug indexing is an old school idea. worth 2 or 3hp. jsut shim the plugs so taht the open side of the prong is facing towards the exhaust valve. there are kits available to do it, actually it is a good way to pass time in the lanes if you are bored and have easy access to the plugs.

j0n im sure as hell glad you beat that fuggin annoying rice box in that one video. That thing HAS to hit 12s before you sell it and the way it sits. Keep em comin man!

Yup, tim covered indexing plugs.

You could also add onto your high tech cold air kit..... and make a scoop for ram air?

congrats on the new best. i loved the "****" at the end of the video:rofl:

right now ive got open 4" pvc in the fender well...could a 90* elbow underneath the car running to the cai help or hurt?

It could help it....... because at higher speeds (maybe above 80) you will develop a ram air effect..... and you might gains a bit of top end from it

Well, supposidly j0n's LT1 vanished last night. I think we found a culprit:

:rofl:

wow.... just wow

noah you have way to much free time.

:lol:

lol yea i knew the 60 was good and when i missed 4th i was very pissed

ill get one of your vids up from last night. hey look on the bright side, at least your 2nd gear doesnt pop out like mine now....

I think I've watched that video when you raced my vette like 20 times lol. I'm like oh maybe the vette will win this time, oh it's coming back lol j/k

Congrats J0n! and Noah... :lol:

I was VERY suprised to see you beat an LS1 powered vette on the top end!
