My mir drag results

[VFORCEJOHN]

I didn't do too bad with the new found power. Maybe when I take the junk out of my trunk ill break into the 10.s. in a convertible with just some boltons I'm really happy.

Best now was 11.09@126.

Put 103 unleaded in it and it went 128 but I missed 2 gear.

I only got 2 runs I'm running true street and gt500 classes

Alot of beautiful cars there. Most running 10s.

Loading pics to Photobucket now

Very nice can't imagine a vert with that much balls ;-)
Do you have a gear?
As a drag racer, you will really love it and it will save the clutch.

Hit 10.8@128 today. Quite a few times. 1.6-1.7 60 foot. Clutch was slipping bad out of hole and top of 3 gear hurting mph.

Won the SVT TRUE STREET 11 second class with a 11.1 average.

Toasted the clutch... Hope I make it home 250 miles. I can go 1/4 throttle in 3 gear. No more. It'll be a slow ride if it makes it....

Lots of pics and vids. I'm beat!

Congrats on your PB! I guess time for new clutch! Did you still have the stock clutch?

 

[GOTSVT?]

Damn! I forgot you were there!
Saw you in the tower when we were collecting
Our winnings. I won the 12 sec class.

I know, I saw your car on this forum. It was hard to put faces to forum names. But yes that was me. I had a blast and everyone I met was exceptional. I can't wait to do it again. Now to see if I can make the drive home. I'm skipping out on the gt500 class and driving home as slow as possible.

Way to go and awesome times!!!

Nice times esp on a hurt clutch. Been there done that with the limping home. The rxt twin I put in to replace the stocker has been great. Sixty foot times are better than with the stock clutch which is unusual with an aftermarket clutch IMO .

Congrats on the new personal best... I came back to the track today looking for you guys... GOTSVT and I battled for the 12second slot he won it.... I need a driver mod BAD!!!!

 

[svt662]

Congrats! I smelt a 10 sec. pass and it's a heavy weight convertible!

10.8 is getting down the track very well, especially considering you knocked .9 seconds off your stock 1/4 mile time of 11.7, IIRC? .9 seconds is a lot!

One thing I noticed, noting that your stock mph was 125, and modded ( DR's, lower pulley, tune, offroad H, 10% ati lower, CAI, Throttle body ) mph was 128, would you consider the reason you only gained 3mph was due to hooking better off the line with the drag radials or perhaps clutch slipping?
Congrats on the new ET, and sorry to hear about your clutch.

Bummer about the clutch! Good excuse to upgrade though. My Mcleod RXT will be at my doorstep this afternoon!!!

No way, you kicked ass out there!
Get some stickies on the back, and you are in business!

Anyone know if OP made it home?
