Shattered My Old Record
 
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

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

j0n 05-30-2007 07:18 AM

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

Brando56894 05-30-2007 09:17 PM

[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 05-30-2007 09:19 PM

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 05-31-2007 05:57 PM

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 05-31-2007 06:41 PM

JL8Jeff 05-31-2007 09:11 PM

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