Fastest 1/4 (the truck is a good friend of mine and ended up going a 10.89 at the end of the season. He also has another red lightning that has gone low 9s!)

Nice video...

nice vids, and good runs.

sk8world · 03-12-2008, 12:16 AM

those are nice passes! What 60 foot were you cutting? I am hoping for the same times!

zinx · 03-12-2008, 10:31 AM

Thanks guys. My best 60' is a 1.52 and later last season i was consistently in the 1.52-1.54 range after i got the launch down. I think i can bust off a 1.4x this season with some tricks, but i don't know if i want to be that hard on the car.

sk8world · 03-12-2008, 12:19 PM

Yeah, I am still on stock axle's and diff. I am hoping they hold for a few passes. Years ago Steve Kan told me the biggest trick was getting the slack out using the e-brake. I have always used that advise and been ok. (so far) But I have never cut better than a 1.74 on BFG DR's. Back when I ran ET streets I was too scared too really drop it... BTW what tires you using? I was just going to go back with et streets again..

So with a 1.52 60 foot and 500rwhp that got you the 6.9 with 10.8?

I think getting the slack out of the drive train does make a big difference, but i'm bad about it. I need to work on that. I do run ET streets 26x10.5 on the stock tires and i drop the hammer at 7500+. At the end of the season i was dropping it off the 8100 rpm limit with 5psi of boost. I don't think i'm going to do that this year.

The first time i ever went out on ET Streets, i snapped a stock axle like it was a twig. I've got vid of both times i've broken at the strip. I'll post them up when i find them.

Yes i run the line lock its pretty easy to hook up. And helps to keep from heating up the clutch.
If i knew how to post pic's i would post the install!

Good to see you on here. I was going to hit you up on my line lock install. What model do you suggest? Was it you whom installed the button as the horn?

sk8world · 03-12-2008, 01:52 PM

So with a 1.52 60 foot and 500rwhp that got you the 6.9 with 10.8?

Or was this done on less boost?

I think i was making less power than 500 when i ran this. The conditions when i dynoed were really good, and when i ran most of the time is was nice and humid in the summer. I think the car has a 10.70 as it sits, but i'd have to drive the wheels off it.
