9.06 1/8thMI in the FC
Well if you don’t know the FC view the blog.
Anyhow I only got 1 run without something braking mainly IC pipes blowing off. I ran on the 205x35R17 radials it drives on every day and blown struts :-) It took all these bad passes just to figure out how to get the car not to wheel hop from the line but my reaction times suffered. Went from a .02 reaction to a .3 from riding the clutch out smoothly. I did not run it its hardest the only completed run of the night shifter at 6.5ish and was in 4th gear and pulling in the 1/8th mile so we know it was early shifts. And the vid my friend took sounded like 2nd bogged but my drive didn’t feel like it :-/. Anyhow there are the conditions of the night.
The time slip
+ .3609 Reaction
2.2841 60ft
6.0101 330ft
8.5061 594ft
9.0629 1/8ET
80.82 mph
I feel with these same tiers that it could run a 8.7 and very low 8 on slicks if not bettor. Unfortunately we will never know since the front rotor popped. We will see what it runs next time on new motor.
