I went to the local strip on Friday night to make some passes and hang out. My first pass I cut my best 60' ever with a 1.59, and it felt damn good too. Unfortunately i missed 3rd on that run, but still managed a 11.25, so i was pretty sure i could pull out a 10 during the night with a clean run.

My second pass was a very clean run, not as great of 60', but i banged the gears as you can hear in the second vid.My boost gauge was only showing around 18 psi, but i think if i were to have logged the run, the MAP on the Haltech would have shown more. I think its time for a new boost gauge.


Here is the slip:
60' - 1.647
330' - 4.624
1/8 - 7.087
mph - 101.13
1000' - 9.165
1/4 - 10.922
mph - 128.49

The first vid shows the time really well and follows me down the track, the second vid shows the launch and the first 1/2 of the track but gets fuzzy after that.

BTW, the Lightning i was racing is a good friend of mine, the one in the vid is his tow truck and has gone low 11s but he spun on this race and ended with an 11.8. He also has another red lightning that has gone low 9s and is completely street legal very cool turbo trucks.

Nice! I love seeing posts like these What tire pressure did you end up going with?

 

Thanks guys. I had a pretty good group of friends cheering me on. I was running 13 psi in the tires. After that pass, they told me i had to have a roll bar if i wanted to run anymore.

 

it's a good feeling to get kicked off the track because your too fast...

Congrats.....

 

awesome... loved the energy.. from ur people..

 

awsome cograts!

 

Great race. Jon's launch on his first pass was carzy!

 

awesome. Looks like its time for me to hit a 10 sec pass to complete the st.louis steve kan tuning session crew.

...im working on it.

 

Come on iceman you can do it! I want to see a 10.5 out of one of us before long that is after the cages are installed. Were is pdviper he needs to get some practice. Is he still in Fla.

 

wow and only 13 psi damn, that truck look like it was giving u a run for your money, great show tho

 

13 psi in the tires, not manifold.

 

u are running et streets right? what kind of work have u done to your driveline? the diff isnt stock is it?

what rpm were u launching at?

do u have a way to build boost at the line?

 

Yes, ET Streets on stock FD wheels. My drivetrain consists of an ACT 6 puck clutch, stock tranny, Kaaz Diff, and Driveshaft shop 300M axles. No boost at the line, just launching around 7000-7500 rpms.

 

congrats

 

Congrats.

 

10s was the best timeslip I have gotten yet.

Congrats!

 

Great job bro! Always good to see another 7 running well.

 

Thanks guys! I was definitely representing the rotaries. I was the fastest vehicle out that night.

 

Great job! Congrats!

 

Zinx im going with the duel swing out removable bars and 6 point cage. Have you got any idea what your going with yet?

 

congrats on your 10's pass!!! The car sounded very good going down the track. I'm assuming that this was done on pump gas?
