Opinions on what I will run tonight?

[Stopsign32v]

Today is opening night at the track for Test N Tune so I plan to run. The car is a 5 speed Mach 1 with mods..

JLT RAI
1/2" spacer
MGW shifter
MAC catback
O/R H pipe

The car has no tune, I plan to put alittle race gas in it at the track, and I will be running Nitto DRs but not leaving the line hard because of stock axles.

So opinions on what it will run? I'm taking the video camera so I will post up the video when I get back tonight. :beer:

13.65...just a wild guess...depends if you can get it out of the hole or not..:banana:

If you can't hit a 12 second pass it's time to let someone else drive it.

 

[mrbigjeep]

i'll guess 13.2 if your not launching real hard.

 

[20stang02]

The real question is why the hell are you putting race gas in it? If its not tuned for it, the car will run no better, if not a tad slower

Haha, okay.

I think you should run mid to low 13's but, your first run will probly be high 13's. Goodluck and I hope you have fun. I can't wait to hit the track this spring.

13.2 to 13.5 depending on how well you hook up. Oh and I wouldn't put any race gas in. Its kind of a waste at this point.

 

[Stopsign32v]

The only reason for the race gas was because with the bolt ons and no tune the car is probably running on the lean side. With this car NOT being mine I wanted to be extra careful I did not blow a hole in a piston.

It took 2 hours to get through the staging lanes and I managed to get one run in. No one that night was hooking up. Alot of nitrous/cammed LS1s were there on sticky tires and none of them ran faster than 12 flat. It didn't even look like the track was prepped. :nonono: I went up expecting to run no better than 13.5. To help I dropped the air pressure down to 11psi and tried to melt the tires in the burnout box. Proof is below... :kaboom:

I was lined up next to a modded C6, me left lane/him right lane. Video is uploading..

nice top fuel burnout lol! good run :beer:

 

[ponygt65]

Pretty nice K considering stock tune and crappy track setup. Get a custom tune (you know me, I'mma beat that into your head... :lol: ) and be 12s @ ~107-108.

Don't make me PM her and scare her into doing it....ROFLMMFAO!!

 

[Stopsign32v]

Speaking of which we are actually going to tune it in about 2 weeks. :beer:

I would love to to have been there. What track is that anyway? How far is it from columbia? We run similar mph, I traped 105 at darlington but only 81 in the 1/8th mile. I will be going to darlington Wednesday so I will see what she is doing! I think there is a 12 in that car with a tune!!

LOL! No need to scare me into anything. State taxes going towards the tune. Maybe some 4.10 gears before the tune! We will see...

Glad to hear it guys. And Glad you called before going yesterday......:beer: I was at work though, so sorry I didn't ahve time to BS. Not that you had the time either.


Oh, and I'd go with 28 hardned mosiers if you can. (~$225)

Already ahead of you friend. :beer: We decided that when the 4.10s go in the aftermarket 28 splines will go in. However I think I am going to go with some Moser axles instead of the Mosiers you like. oke: :lol: Thhhhhen I will be putting on my 17x10.5 wheels and the 335 Hoosier DRs. :coolman:

 

[Stopsign32v]

Damnit she didn't log out. :bash: Above was me not her.

 

[Ls1z28-00]

nice run you had him until the 1000 mark looks like. were those street tires? burning street tires like that doesnt help any but i guess it looks cool. put some radials on that thing and dump the clutch youll get a 12 sec pass easy.
