11's on the first pass, gotta love this car

[F8L SNK]

I am new to the 03 Cobra racing world, but not new to racing. I just wanted to express my amazement with these cars. They are sleds and they still can run the numbers!

Well, I went to the track this past weekend, and on the first pass I ran an 11.87 @121, second pass I ran an 11.70 @ 122. Both were with 1.92 & 1.91 60 fts. with the stock F1's! I had hoped to be able to get to an 11 the first trip, but not expect it the first pass.

Anyway, I just wanted to share my experience so far!

I slipped the clutch out at about 2000 RPM, shifter @ 6500 RPM, only 1 pass did I get wheel hop in 2nd, but VERY little.
I also got wheel hop on 1 launch, I got a little aggressive on engaging the clutch all the way, again VERY little hop.

I have AFS 10.5's on order, and BFG KD's, not drag radials, but a 315 should do considerably better than the 275 F1's.

Cool, me and raptorman02 have run 11.8's and 11.7's respectively with the same type of mods except for the headers and the TB. Also we don't have any supension work.

GREAT TIMES F8L SNK

 

[F8L SNK]

I plan on improving on the times, but I was very pleased with the first time to the track! Ambient temp as about 78 degrees, and humidity was high, but not sure what.

Congrats on the great Times

 

[zzzzzer]

Very nice! Congrats!

 

[raptorman02]

Those are awesome, Rice and I were in Drag Radials. You certainly are an experiences racer to get 60's like that with F1's. Good work and lets see some low 11's and 10's next time mister.JK

 

[F8L SNK]

Thanks, and I will try! LOL

Awesome times for sure!! Are U running any idlers to eliminate belt slip at all, are U getting belt slip with the 2.8, also are U happy with the Accufab, seems like U have a strong car for sure!

 

[F8L SNK]

I do have the Metco Idler, and still have a little belt slip. It peaks about 14lbs and drop to 12-13 at higher RPM. I know part of that is normal, but I always have belt dust in the usual places.

Thanks,

Tim
