Default Cartek Stage 3X runs 10.58 @ 130.6 mph First time out.

Brent's Stage 2-X rev 2 is now a Stage 3X and ran 10.58 @ 130.6 on it's first time out.

His set up makes 482 rwhp and 416 rwtq.

Here is a video of his 10.59 @ 129.95 run with his old set up, the Stage 2-X rev. 2. ---> http://www.cartek.net/videos/brent1059.wmv

WOW that is some serious HP and great ET run!

Whats the difference between the Stage2-x and the Stage3-x ? I see you picked up more HP but the ET was about the same. I'm guessing you had warmer weather than when you ran the 10.59 video? If so thats great, you know the setup is working when you can run faster in warmer weather!

Nice Job!

The temps were colder during the 10.58 pass but the DA wasn't as good as the day of the 10.59, still good air though. The colder air and worse track prep (a lot of street tired cars that night) did hurt traction a bit though so the car should still have more in it.

Jason, the DA for the 10.59 @ 129.95 run with a 1.44-60', was about -1500.

The DA for the 10.58 @ 130.6 run with a 1.478-60', was about -1200.

Thanks for the props.


Colonel, I don't feel that we need to go to a solid setup with the current runner length. With a custom, shorter runner intake, it's a different story.

I guess credit should definately be given where it's due. Cartek is out at the track kicking *** all the time while others sit back and battle dyno wars...

Good job guys, sorry about that lil kick concerning the crazy 480 dyno #'s
