8th mile times

[Purple97GT]

[email protected] w/ 1.87 60' on street tires.

How the heck did ya cut a 1.86 60ft on street radials? What mods and rear axel/suspension work have you done?

Your local track must be real sticky off the line.

:dunno:Heck if I know. It was the first time I ran at Maryland International Raceway and it was pretty sticky. As far as suspension, I had 4 cyl Foxbody front springs cut 1/2 coil, PA racing tubular K-member, cut stock rear springs, and tokico hp struts/shocks. On that run I did have the sway bar endlinks disconnected. I also have a 4:10 gear and Nitto 555's. I even had my jack, spare, and toolbox in the trunk too so your guess is as good as mine.

Disconnecting the sway bar probably helped quite a bit actually.

I just got back from the track and am very disappointed.

I don't know what your altitude is or how good the air and temp was, but that seems off for a bolton PI. For comparison, my friend raced the 1/8 mile in a heavy 04 40th vert with auto trans that is bone stock except for a MAC CAI and weld in flowmasters. He cut 9.3's and 9.4's all night. He was on stock street tires and didn't drop any air out. I do think he ran with traction control on, though.

Do you not have the car tuned?

My car has a mail order tune (rich though) for my mods, PI crate motor swap, rear O2's off, and bumped timing for 93 pump gas. I've run a 8.74 in the 1/8 and best MPH was 82. On street tires, hopping it out of the hole and then flooring it.

My mods are:

04 PI crate motor swap
BBK Shorty headers
MAC ProChamber o/r
MAC Flowpath 3" catback
BBK CAI
Pro-Flo 87mm MAF for 19lb hr injectors
BBK 75mm TB
Ford racing aluminum driveshaft
Ford racing 3:73 gear
SCT Xcal2 mail order tune

Of course this is through a 5 speed....

I just got back from the track and am very disappointed.

dude thats crazy... theirs no way i got a better time with your mods... where @ in texas?

 

[bluestang98]

I live in Abilene, TX. I just added a DirtyDog 3600 stall converter to my setup and tried running it the other night and was yet still disappointed.

60 ft -----2.0465
330 ft-----5.9568
1/8 et ----9.1818
1/8 mph---76.23

That sucked, on the other hand, My car has never been tuned with a hand held or dyno. So I think that it is safe to assume that I can only go faster once that is done. I have already scheduled an appointment to take the car on April 4 to HPP racing in Lewisville to get dyno tuned. Wish me luck! :banana:

 

[justinschmidt1]
