Fastest n/a Boss qtr mile pass???

[burnin4]

I went back to the drag strip today, this time with the AT/TC turned off :rollseyes. I managed to lower my et's but I was 4 mph slower then 2 weeks ago :cuss:. The DA today was 204ft/ZMax drag strip compared to negative 758ft/Rockingham drag strip (962ft difference). Here was my best pass today...

I guess the difference of 962ft in DA really impacted my trap speed. I was pretty upset with my mph but happy to discover that it was my AT/TC that was killing my et's 2 weeks ago in Rockingham and not my clutch.

Anyway, I'll upload my vids a little later tonight and post them up.

I also made an 11.6 and 2 11.7 pass's, fun day at the strip, met several fellow mustang owners :rockon:

Does anyone know of an n/a Boss that has gone faster down the qtr mile?

Welcome to my world!
I managed a best yesterday of 11.251 @117.3
Best MPH of the day was 119.3
Best 1/8th was 7.18 @99.3

Best EVER on gasoline (in better air) was 11.1 @122.xMPH and 100MPH in the 1/8th.

These cars are really affected by DA 1/8th to 1/4. 1/8th seems to be pretty close.

Actually, it's comforting to see your results! LOL

Haha! Yeah, the conditions were not that great yesterday but I still had fun. I was trapping 98/123+ 2 weeks ago with my traction control turned on :dw:.

What are your mods? Weight reduction? amazing times :beer:

Just a GT with some exhaust, ported intake, tune, and 200ish lbs of reduced weight.
My best on E85 is 11.07 @123.5 in stelar conditions. I'm hoping swapping back to E85 will cool the engine enough to duplicate those times..... Probably wishfull thinking till sub zero DA comes back.

 

[jake74]

It was 70 and sunny at track today.Perfect conditions.I am going to go to my closest 1/4 mile track in a few weeks which is an hour drive away and see what it will do.I really need to buy some drag wheels and tires for the car to shed some weight.

Which 1/8 drag strip were you at in La?

dang, where did you find 200lbs?!! What kind of clutch and driveshaft are you running? Any other suspension mods? You have some strong et's/mph!!!

Hey burnin4-

Did you ever get your line lock installed? So, the clutch is fine?

Nice passes by the way.

 

[jake74]

Not in LA.I'm in Northern Alabama.The track is baileyton dragstrip,it's an old track been there since the 60's and is only 20 mins from me so it's really convenient.

yeah, my clutch is perfect, haha! I was only hitting the tc button once instead of holding it down for 7 seconds. the advancetrac or whatever was killing my power, thought it was the clutch since I 'thought' I had turned it off. I held down the tc button for 7 seconds on every pass yesterday, was able to cut 1.6's and grab every gear without it bogging....just a damn shame that I couldnt have figured that out 2 weeks ago when I had excellent conditions in Rockingham :nonono:.

No line lock, I figured out how to do a 2nd gear burnout.

Checkout this burnout :-D. It wasn't my best pass but at least the burnout was nasty :rockon:. I left that Z sittin, cut a .0 reaction time and a 1.74 60ft.

I also held my brake and held down the tc button for 7 seconds before all of my runs.I did my burnout's in 2nd gear.The way I do it is hold the brake with the heal of my right foot and give it throttle with the tow of my right foot at the same time.I used to run a 1990 notch 5 speed so I got good at the burnout thing with a stick.

Wow. Now I really want one =o)
