On a side note, Demetrios got his car running well towards the end of the day.
He redlight in the first eliminations, but still ran a 7.84@175mph......
By April 9 @ MIR, he should get even better.
Oh man, can we see the timeslip of that pass?

I've always wondered how fast I could run the 1/4 on foot.

SO, before you start acting like a child, do some homework. I've been around Demetrios when he's tuned his car for high boost and have been there when the fuel wouldn't support the boost.

oh i forgot dee's the only person that's ever tuned on c16 before. but maybe just maybe there are other racers that have used this fuel before. umm let's see here, aebs focus ran 50psi on race gas no nitrous and made around 1000rwhp, hp racing civic 45psi + 300 shot on c16, joe demaree 50psi on c16, titan supra 1350hp 45psi c16, and pretty much every other high hp supra out there. i was there when scranton made 1150rwhp spiking to 44psi on guess what c16. so obviously the fuel's not breaking down at 35psi is it? go ahead and call these people if you want.

Im sure Dee can post the timeslip guys. I didn't go to Arizona so I dont have it.
As far as what so and so is running, until you see the fuel go in the car, dont always assume its not mixed with alcohol. Plus different cars and different engines don't apply to what Im talking about. Im talking about our cars, not pistons. Its not a pissing match, Im just stating what I've seen with my own eye's. And not just w/ Dee's car.
The next Nopi race is at MIR, April 9-10th. Hope some more 7's go a bust some Supra ***.

Did he say how much boost that he runs? Usually if you race, you don't run your "low" boost setting. Thats why I ask.

Before he left he said his corner seal was broken and he didn't have time to fix it so it could be very possible that he was only running 28 p.s.i. Sounds like he got his ignition issues sorted out if he pulled a 9.6. Last I remember his best was a 9.89 and he pulled a 10.1 at bandimere not to long ago. I'll have to get details next time I see him.

Yeah. Not sure if they are actually chrome but they are factory rims for sure. And they do look chrome. As far as I know the entire drivetrain is stock with the exception of a kaaz limited slip. Full interior even. Stock flywheel with a single 6 puck clutch. Its amazing how simple his car is. All the work is in the motor. In fact the light flywheel that used to be in that car is in mine right now. The car used to be a street car and even had a veilside kit (the side skirts are still on it). He builds awesome motors for sure and he would make a killing selling motors to guys on the forums because he does an awesome job. He built a daily driver FD for a guy that pulls 11 second 1/4's and has run flawlessly ever since.

13b

Good luck trying to get Demetrios to post on this forum again!! From what I understand he is on his way to Jersey now for a few more test runs. Then considering NHRA florida the following weekend then back to maryland for a nopi race. If you want to see the first seven second pass by a 13b Outlaw RWD car at a nopi race I suggest you go to maryland and see it in person at budds creek April 9,10.

Ari's Rx7 is Turbocharged, if you are talking about Jesus Padilla's car, that is a different category (less weight), however I don't know if he is running a jerico.

On C-16 only? No mix? I talked to Don Nase yesterday and he even confirmed it.

Never been done at a NOPI race and from nhra records it looks like the only time the Gonzalez boys ever did it it was naver backed up with 1% as required by NHRA rules. Nonetheless even if it was it was NHRA only and a high seven at that eventually the Dee will be the fastest modified car in the world
