Went to the track tonight and ran a new personal best of , 11.30 at 124.6 mph with a 1.60 60 ft The hole shot was sick and the car felt reeeeeally strong, so strong I was pinned in the seat..I short shifted and soft shifted, all of the gears going down the track, no powershifting as I was feeling out the new tranny..However my datalogs showed only 13.7 psi of peak boost The second run I decided to launch it like I stole it and after powershifting in to 2nd gear, I felt the motor rev and the car not move...Yup, toasted the clutch I just put in 1 week ago.. This explains why I was not making full boost on the first run, which I am confident would have shaved off a few more tenths had the clutch not been slipping...It seems just as one issue is resolved, a new one pops up..
Keep in mind this is a full street car with MT drag radials and 19" 255/35 tires up front with a 90% interior weighing in at 3560 with me in it and 1/2 tank of 112 octane..
This car flat out sucks...

 

Almost there man. I see 10 seconds in your future :-D

 

wow what a pricey hobby

 

Who great runs, what clutch are yuo running? 10's are coming

 

Its not a hobby! Its a way of life! LOL....... That sounds gay

 

Was running a Clutchmasters stage 4 puck style clutch, supposed to be good for 600 Tq...Guess not..

 

Get a refund + labor!

 

Nice times man, good luck on the clutch... what do you think you're going to get next?

How exactly did you launch that fuct the clutch over THAT bad?

 

Etown?

 

Thats where they usually go. Its 5 minutes away.

 

wow 10's Get that new clutch, break it in and go back to the track!!!

 

Will do, but last time I "presumed" I would run 10's I was told I was using RICER MATH So were not gonna assume anything at this point..

 

Probably get a gallon of gasoline and a highway flair and burn that phucker!!

 

What'd you do to get 200lbs off the race weight of the car?

 

That is sick, great ET for the mph. Do you have DSS axles?

 

great 60'...you said you use "MT drag radials"...are those the same as the MT ET street?

 

Great time man.. nice driving

 

Nice run and that 60' is really good. I'm sure that u will hit a ten in no time

 

I have Sparco Seats, No spare tire or jack..The rest of the interior is in the car..1/2 tank of 112 octane..

 

Actually no, they are a radial sidewall..Actually a DOT approved drag radial, the ET streets are basically a slick with lines in them..We would get a better 60ft with the ET streets no doubt..

Keep in mind, this is a fully drivable TRUE street car..No fuel cell, no cage, no bull****..The same car I can drive 200 miles to a meet and back..A 10.99 on a real street car is our goal..We have other plans for our Pro car that is in the works...
