Talking Please allow myself, to introduce myself…to the 10 Second Club!!!

After years of chasing it BaconSportsRacing and JPR imports has another 10 second car!!!
Last night I clicked off a 11.30 and an 11.20 then left the line harder and netted

RT-- .354
60’-- 1.509
330-- 4.534
1/8-- 7.000
MPH—99.03
1000-- 9.152
¼-- 10.967
MPH—125.49


Then 30 minutes later backed it right up with a near identical pass

RT-- .153
60’-- 1.483
330-- 4.528
1/8-- 6.996
MPH—99.08
1000-- 9.149
¼-- 10.970
MPH—125.02


The next pass I missed 3rd and ran an 11.80, but you could feel the car running nice and strong in the cooler air.


With track temps at 97 deg on both of those runs the car still has more in it, I should have stayed into the night to see how the lower air temps would have affected the runs. But since I was there on Tuesday and sprayed coolant all down the track. and I was lucky the GF gave up her day off to come to the track with me I figured I should quit while ahead.
Funniest part of it all was the 1st 10 second pass the tack pickup came loose and I had no tach from the burnout on, so I just was ear shifting, and ran a tad bit better than with a tach and shiftlight LOL

I have videos from the night, but their like 16megs each so if someone like vosko wants to resize them for ease of download id appreciate it

The setup is the same from before I wrecked the car.
A “tiny” T04S, Haltech E6k, apex front mount, 850/1600 injectors, ACT hd PP and Sprung 6 puck clutch, kazz, axles, 4.33 gears… all the usual goodies. Last dyno was 465 RWHP with a extra rich tune, so as soon as I can get her back on the dyno she should squeak out some more HP.

I have to give a HUGE thanks to Jim @ JPR imports, Keith @ KG parts, Anthony for the tip on the clutch, Turbo tommy, Vosko, and all the forum members who have helped along the way
