11.98 !!!
11.98 !!!
Well guys after much waiting to get my car to the track I finally had a chance to run my newly Turbo Z. As some of you know I have been saying I was gonna be the first ST Z in the 11's and I did it today Let me start by saying a few things. This was done on slicks on my SREET TUNE-9psi PUMP GAS. I also have a race gas map on higher boost coming but I wanted to see if I coulld hit 11's on my street tune. My UTEC is awesome but this temperature compensation is making my car run very rich(safe but not powerful). After fine tuning the A/F's on Friday (50degrees) to what I thought today would be like I ran in colder conditions today which threw my UTEC into the next temp compensation down and made me rich(in the 10's A/F) Obviously my car isnt running bad, but nowhere near the 396/400 #'s when at 11:1 A/F. And I did this with a constant 20+mph headwind(ask any of the 5 or 6 Z/G owners who were at the track with me) Ok, enough BS, one more comment and thats a thanks to AAM for the tune(temp comp is not their fault), fuel system, and help with getting me running well.
I ran 3X, break down is as follows:
Run 1:
60ft----> 1.894 THIS SUCKS A$$ I didnt heat the slicks up enough
330'----> 5.220
1/8-----> 7.917 @ 90.59
1000'---> 10.244
1/4-----> 12.215 @ 115.29
Run 2:
60ft----> 1.761 My first 1.7 60ft
330'----> 5.004
1/8-----> 7.707 @ 88.63
1000'---> 10.021
1/4-----> 11.985 @ 114.32 **Car picked up 26mph the last 1/8 I was happy considering the nasty headwind
Run 3:
60ft----> 1.791
330'----> 5.054
1/8-----> 7.755 @ 90.00
1000'---> 10.080
1/4-----> 12.048 @ 114.55
I was VERY thrilled as you can imagine, I was dissapointed with my traps, but I know I can do better I cant stress this nasty headwind enough. Well guys the bar has been raised I think in the FI world, first TN and ST Z in general to my knowledge in the 11's. Race gas, more boost and better conditions to come I wont even call out what I think Ill be running in the next few months BTW I have in car video of all the runs, Ill post those later...comments?

Very nice! I don't think you'd be the first in 11's with the ST, but it is still a great time. You would be the first online community member to make it public, however. I was really hoping you would be able to break lower into 11's with those slicks. But, I'm sure in time with the ST kit you'll trim your time down even further.
As far as ST's are concerned, I think they are extremely under appreciated as far as power at the street and strip. I'm looking forward to the first wave of built ST's hitting the drag strips.

I was there to witness this. Bert is right on about the wind.
Congrats, man. It was awesome to see a Z running with most of the heavy artillery that was out in force at Capital. The heavily modded evo's and srt4's were scratching there heads today, bro. Hell, the NOS 'stangs and SC 'stangs were doing the same thing...
Awesome!

Thanks guys....
Lauched conservatively at 4000-4500rpm's, and powered out of the hole to the 1.7's-something I couldnt do NA. I think in ideal conditions on this tune I can hit a high 11.7, Ill prove it guys all in due time.
BTW who else has legit hit an 11 sec timeslip on a St Tuarran? Im the first I know of from teh forums.

Good job Alberto...Can't wait to have my TN kit put on if I don't go for the JWT...On another note. What is the highest RPM you can launch at without breaking the axles since I know that one member broke his at a 5000RPM launch a couple weeks ago. Again good job Alberto.
Ive launched at 6500rpm's NA, its not in how high you launch its in how you launch. Always preload the drivetrain and you'll greatly lessen the chance of a snapped axle.
