Drove my car 120miles to the track on Wednesday and was able to net 33mpg(66 miles consumed 2 gallons of gas) on drag radials in the terrible 103* heat. My goal was to drive the car to the track hopefully run a 10 without doing anything to the car other than lowering tire pressure and drive it home without breaking it.
My first run was on 6psi with the 2 step set to 3600rpms and the second run(both on pump) I turned the boost up to 9psi and set the 2 step to 4200rpms(which was too high for the drag radials) I barely warmed up the tires on both runs for the fear of snapping a stock axle like I did last time so I did quick easy burnouts.

The car came out of the hole on the first pass really nice and was a pretty decent pass.




This pass the car came out of the hole terrible(you can hear me let off and get back on it..sounded like I shifted but I didnt) but once it hooked in 2nd the car pulled like a fkn monster. I cant wait for it to be a little cooler..im going to come back on real slicks and some race gas with 10+psi.





..now its time for suspension and 150mph passes..which is my goal for next year.

 

wow i hate you lol....very very nice...

 

Nice run and a sweet trap!!

 

That's a quick car. Nice runs!

Are you from CT?

 

Jesus Christ that was awesome! I'd love to see what 10psi and some race gas can do for your times

 

Great numbers!

 

bahaha i want an ls2 under the hood...

 

So this was 1/8th mile or 1/4?

 

You are kidding right? That was a 1/4 mile.

 

too bad that mustang was making crapping noises while you made your passes.

 

cant imagine in cooler weather w/higher psi and traction... yikes what a beast

 

Well now that ive reached my goal of 10s on stock suspension/axles its time to upgrade. I like what SPL has to offer for rear suspension so im going to start with the rear suspension and differential and see if I can break 9s or 150mph on stock axles =) I have a pile of axles in my garage that I got for a good price...and id rather break those than 1500$ axles or my driveshaft or transmission.

 

^^ Good idea...I think with good launches you'll do better than you think on the stockers.

 

Very nice, conrgats on the great numbers.

 

I agree. Its time for an aftermarket diff since mine is shot.
