I got killed...Videos inside...I should've known better
I jumped on the second race and still got caught...lol.
My mods are: Street port ALS seals Greddy T78 Haltech E8 Pump gas LS2 ignition coils. Around 450-480rwhp. The S10: carburated small block Spraying a small 150shot cause it might give me a chance.:( E85 I got worked...again...:rolleyes: <object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/lYzkX1dpIso&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/lYzkX1dpIso&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object> <object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/VALMb7UVZSM&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/VALMb7UVZSM&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object> |
nice runs still. I'm not a big fan of Nitrous though. A 1.3l turbo vs a v8 with nitrous.. i think you did well.
|
agreed. i like the second run how the shift light lit up his face lol, reminded me of when i was young and my parents used to put the flash light and say the cucuy (Mexican bogeyman) is coming.
|
YOU GOT owned:) great video man. All in all you still drive an FD and that dude "WHAT".
DRIVE safe. |
That sucks man...
|
that truck is bad ass.... when he purged the nitrous you must of been like "WHAT THE F@!K" lol
|
He's a friend of mine so I knew what was coming.
He runs high 10s on motor and high 9s with the 150shot, so I had no chance either way. I'm always down to race, whether I'm gonna win or not. I don't get butt hurt, cause I know I'm one of the slower guys. |
1 question comes to mind, what set up would the FD need in order to take and beat the Beast???

used to have a buddy around my area with a SBC in an old s10 with a 75 shot. he figured we were going to race so prematurely he upped his shot to a 150. he beat me by a car but rod knocked it in the end. nowhere near the built engine as your friend tho
|
That truck is quick. Nice try though. I love to race even if I am gonna lose too.
|
That last race was close. I'd take a 450-480hp FD over a shit truck any day of the week :icon_tup:
|
That was awesome man. I applaud you for sharing a loss, with a video none the less.
Gotta admit that the bug inside you has probably been stirred up a little bit...ha BTW, how much boost were you running and I bet that S10 is light as hell |

and I would rather lose to a faster car than crush a slower car |
Did you try to brake boost? He still would have pulled you eventually I think but might have made it more interesting. Nothing like being taken out back to the woodshed! Good runs and nice rides. G
|
Throw a turn or two into that race and run it again. I doubt he's done the suspension work needed to do anything other than a straight line.
20B is the other way to go if you want to just stay in a straight line. Speed costs money - how fast do you want to go? |
Look on the bright side, im sure your car would have felt alot safer at that speed
|
Thanks guys.

You'll notice on the first run that it nose dived while brake boosting, my fuel map was a little too rich causing it to fall flat on it's face once i got to full boost at such a low rpm.

:scratch:
|
damn an s10 with a sbc swap? Thats NEVER been done
|
haha strange race.
|
Do you have a dyno sheet of the power your car is making? If he was spraying a 150 shot on a carbed stock cube 350 you should have beat him with almost 500 HP. I'm willing to bet you're not making as much power as your butt thinks you are.
|
He has run a best of 9.99sec @132mph with that small 150 shot.
And he also ran high 10s on motor alone so, I'm pretty sure he's got me. My butt dyno is a little off calibration too, but my trap speed tells me I'm high 400hp. Actually I think the track was downhill....for real... |
idk sounds like you are granny shifting....you sure you know how to properly drive that car of yours?
|
Granny shifting...not double clutchin like I should.
Ask any racer, any REAL racer. Doesn't take much skill to roll race. I prefer digs but he's already beat me there too...lol. No video of that though...thank gawd!! |
