First Time to Run 1/4 Mile

[rustang1]

Me and a buddy decided to drive 100 miles to run the 1/4 mile instead of 1/8th.
This was my first time to run the 1/4.
Track was not hooking good. I blew the tires the first run.
Second run I went about half throttle then hit full throttle after I was moving.

got damn.

thats a 9 sec car with some track prep... mph is STRONG.

only 10 psi? very nice.

Very nice- whom is doing the tuning? with a better 60- which you will get with better track prep your car will go high 9.80's - don't be afraid to drop the tire pressure to 13-13.5 if the track is shit- (as long as your running a 10" wheel) I had to because my local track has had shit prep the last month they were open.

AED tuned. Not 100% dialed in yet. Got another revision today after I logged run at track.
I have been 1.49 60ft before. I will have to do some suspension work before I get any 1.3's

First thing I need to do is put brakes on. I had to use ALL the shutdown area to get slowed down. lol

^^^^ dam how many miles do your current brakes have on them?- I always tak the 2nd turn off on my home track to save on brake dust and wear and tear- but about 2 months ago I ran at another track which actually host nhra national events and I was shocked on how short the shut down area was- had plenty of room but just had to apply the brakes
harder than normal.

Impressive! Get it to hook and you'll see some 9s no problem

Thats a pretty impressive time slip. MPH is definitely getting it done on the big end. Is the car tuned on the Lucas additive or did you just add it for insurance?

 

[rustang1]

Brakes are stock with 49k miles.

Lucas is for safety but I tuned with it. Shaun said my tune is about what he would tune for 91oct on his dyno so evidently my Exon has low quality fuel.
He said there was a little more in it if I wanted but would need to mix race gas at the track so I decided to not push it any further.

Should be an easy 9.9x with some better traction, congrats!
