T88 1/2 BP FD vs 554 rwhp Honda S2000 *vid*
 

This race actually happened a few weeks ago, i just forgot to post it here and looking at the lack of good kills in here lately, i'm glad i remembered.

The S2000, is an awesome car. Extremely clean. Running a GT35R, he had C16 in the tank but i'm not sure how much boost he was running, probably high 20s. He made 554 rwhp on the dyno, but i don't think he was making it the night we raced, unless i magically gained 50 HP. My setup is in the vBGarage and I was on Pump gas and around 22 psi on the second pull.

On the first pull, i had my boost set too high and it went way rich, i still pulled about a car on him from about 70 to 140 (3rd and 4th).

On the second pull, i turned the boost down 10% where it should have been for the first pull. Got a good brake boost going and took him by 2 cars, maybe more. He was claiming break-up, but you "run what you brung" as all the local hill-jacks say.

On to the vid:

sweet kill, what kind of power you making???

What is the chase car? It was pretty quick too!

Thanks, I made 512 rwhp on a dynapack. Tuned by Steve Kan back in February.

Here is the dyno sheet:

Chase car is Radkins, 1/2 bridge, T04R. He wanted a piece of the action too.

both of u seemed faster.

nice kill!

nice kill...didnt seem like the s2k was up to your level..

hey Jon,
what's that s2k run at the track?

Congrats on yet another kill...:titty:

p.s. You and Ryan gonna go to St. Louis for the Feb Tune?
Eric says we're gonna limit the session, to leave time to party/go clubbin..:djcelebra

I don't think he has the tires to make a good pass at the strip. He hasn't made a good pass, but it should be in the 10s if he could hook up and put the power down that he made on the dyno.

I don't think i'll be going back, my car is running great. I will probably be turning up the boost this winter to see what kinda power i can make on pump, but Ryan and I are probably just going to do that little bit of tuning ourselves.

Nice kills. Didn't take long to get to around 140!!

Damn good runs.

Brake boosting def helps :D

On the second run, did you start ahead a bit? Its hard to tell from the cam car but looks like you were a car length ahead before the go.

what is radkins running for power he was keeping up pretty well.

I can build all 22 psi while brake boosting if i have enough time and the revs are high enough. Its a weird feeling.

The vid does kind of look like i'm ahead for the second pull, but i remember being dead even because i was looking right at him for the start. I don't know.

He is fairly close to me, we raced a month ago or so and I put about 1 1/2 - 2 cars on him, but he has made some high boost tuning changes since then.

dam cant wait till i tune on race fuel. both cars look good.

be interesting to see what you can get w/ race gas.. better yet W/ 100 octane as this is easily attainable and not as bad on the wallet.

maybe the audio on the camera was turned down, but that was very quiet for a couple of HBP FDs.

Nice kill. S2ks are great cars. If you can kill it from a roll then you know you've earned the kill.

Just go with a water or meth injection setup and stick with pump, unless you plan on running more than 24 psi of boost all the time, i think its the best option.

It must be the camera because they are deafening in person, both wastegates dumped to the atmosphere.

Nice Kill Son!!!!

that was a double kill if the Video car had alittle action to... The vid car cought up to that S2K like nothing.. SO I would say double kill on a S2K.... Nice run

Nice runs. I wish I could get in on some action like that. Good kills.

from the looks of the vid it looks like radkins was the fastest................ohhhhhhh!

great match up and awesome kill. 500+ hp in a s2000 WOW!! good kill
