First run on street tires was hilarious, 14.7@101mph with a 2.5' 60 foot, still faster than my old 5.0L <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite3" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":(" />. Bolted my ET Drags on, intantly dropped a second lol. I ran a 13.9 (missed 3rd gear), 13.8 (missed 3rd gear again) and a 13.7(hit all gears). Trap speed on those 3 runs were 100, 99 and 101 respectively. Being this was the 2nd time (and first real time running with good slicks) I was being very careful not to screw anything up, considering I daily this car everyday. My best 60' on the slicks was a 1.8 launching at 3.7k-ish, but missed 3rd(was the 13.8 pass). My best run was the 13.7@101.5mph, cut a 1.9' 60 though, launched at 3k. Was also humid as hell that day, track sucked, and no one was running good. I'm going up again on August 26th and I'm going to try launching harder with it, and I need practice shifting, This 3650 shifts way differently than my old T5. If I can run consitant times with it, I'm entering the Street legal bracket class next year. My goal is to get a 13.3-13.1 without touching the engine, so I'm going full tubular front end and getting skinnies eventually for it, then Procharging when I want more power. Here are the few pics and my other pass, this was the 3.7K launch that cut me a 1.8'. Before people say my car should run faster, I know it can, at sea level, I'm at 1500 feet elevation. For comparison, 2010 Mustang GTs were running 14.4/14.3 all night and a 2010 SS camaro was running 13.6 all night. <img src="http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o152/Rice_slayer/2011-08-05194519.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o152/Rice_slayer/2011-08-05203440.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> No line lock sucks, thats another winter mod planned. That "cop" car has a 496 BBC I believe. He ran a 12.5. Was a fun race though!<img src="http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o152/Rice_slayer/2011-08-05194537.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />My rear bumper and my buddies supercharged 331i beamer, he was pissed, he was running 14.8@96mph all night, thought he was going to school my car haha.and the video, redlighted by -.010 <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite4" alt=":mad:" title="Mad    :mad:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":mad:" /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Y_JNoec9bs" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Y_JNoec9bs</a></blockquote>
