i agree with newt, its seat time. when i started i was lucky to break a 15.7. every trip to the track i cut .2 off my time minimum. i have yet to hit a wall where i havent gotten faster and set PB's

i learned to launch it and ran a 14.9 about 4x, then hit a 14.85 before they closed the track for the night. in 3 weeks time when were back my new goal is 14.6



14.04 @ 101 ALLMOTOR

Ya my time was something like that, but I am using the cheapest tires you can get in Canada, ran the 2 hottest nights this year, as you can tell by trap-speed I had very little traction especially through first 2 gears, a bad clutch (slipps more then ever after those runs), full weight (subs and all), so I know could of done better, but Im just lazy when you work on cars all day, taking stuff out of car a hassle, especially since have to put back in after

Familiar Taste of Poison.

paul- all you're hard work paid off buddy. im glad i got the chance to help you out with this project so much.



Familiar Taste of Poison.

fake i dont believe you
jk great job paul



8 psi with m62 and IAT under 100

SO maybe I have to get my clutch, and few of the other toys and run, I know I can get the 14.0 mark easily


"As I lay rubber down the street, I pray for traction I can keep, but if I spin and begin to slide, please dear God protect my ride." -Amen

i need to install my damn wideband! its time to tune!

made this post a month early. i know how to now LOL


stroker + 2400lbs w/ driver + slicks = 12's




Familiar Taste of Poison.

my tune is still pretty rough didnt even play with the afpr we only got 5 runs in so....


I had a stock clutch.

well I got some toys here ready for install so looks like you may not be only one to get 13's lol, I beat your first time, I plan to beat your 13.6 lol, and Im redoing block soon, and maybe just maybe might switch oil pumps


"As I lay rubber down the street, I pray for traction I can keep, but if I spin and begin to slide, please dear God protect my ride." -Amen

i @!#$ bet lol some one is a lil cocky



8 psi with m62 and IAT under 100

Cody I had him beat on old setup, plus I founf an interesting motor from wreckers, with JE pistons, and P&P head, I took the head(look great with the HO cams, I might be going next weekend and getting oil pump crap, I already have the 10:1( but ordering 10.5:1 soon), I already have basically ever N/A part on motor as is, and just figuring out which clutch and flywheel to get( mine toast lost my third gear now lol), so 13's........meh not that hard, I will be running similar setup as Paul's, he doesn't have much more then me now, and I ran ALOT heavier then him at track so 14.0 - 13's easy in my eyes


"As I lay rubber down the street, I pray for traction I can keep, but if I spin and begin to slide, please dear God protect my ride." -Amen

i laugh at the fact you think 13's are 'not that hard.

until you actually do it... you're just blowing smoke. sorry.



Familiar Taste of Poison.

you know going to do it lol, I ran that time easily with wat I have, with clutch and flywheel could of went lower, and ALOT less weight, but I got a few toys to run with next year, as no way I can get clutch and flywheel, and break them in by time last track run of year


"As I lay rubber down the street, I pray for traction I can keep, but if I spin and begin to slide, please dear God protect my ride." -Amen

i hope you do... i really do.

but 13's are by no means 'easy'.



Familiar Taste of Poison.

I know how to drive(lots of bench time), and my car capable of 14.4-14.5 now, but then again without doing the clutch and flywheel will not know, plus rebuilding soon, my toys I have will be similar to Paul's setup


"As I lay rubber down the street, I pray for traction I can keep, but if I spin and begin to slide, please dear God protect my ride." -Amen

hahah ya paul will have something for you to next year too



8 psi with m62 and IAT under 100

u cant compare man... completely different tracks.

do it and come back wit slips.



Familiar Taste of Poison.

ya do you have slips?

have you ran at thundervalley they dont prep for @!#$

i dont understand what makes your car a gift to jbodys



8 psi with m62 and IAT under 100

not a gift to J's but if you read my posts or know me then you know Im not cocky or anything, just having fun. But besides that, this would not be the only car I get into the 13s with, I have had many Cavys, I have helped build others, so I know what Im doing Im just LAZY lol, if I actually got off my ass and did what I was palnning then would be a better time, ask Brad, Scott, Brian they all know not cocky, as Im trying to help them also, we are trying to get me into 13s, Brad into 15s (with 2.2), workign on getting Brian good 3400, so we all just have fun, I know for a fact can get 13s but then again it takes me getting off my ass and doing it. When income tax comes in I will be going new pistons, and rods, and I already have P&P, cams, injectors, pistons, crank, and other things to redo on this car, my build is nice but I know its time for more power and if I dont hit at least 14.0 Im selling her lol


"As I lay rubber down the street, I pray for traction I can keep, but if I spin and begin to slide, please dear God protect my ride." -Amen

oh yea my crappy 2.4 (worst 1 in iowa) ran a 14.9 with a stock bottom end 2.2 60'

Ill have somthing for you boys next year
