speed inc tt 6 speed car goes 9.2@156.35 I know its not an f-body but being a employee of a sponsor I thought I would should post the results here,and you guys would appreciate them
Well after chasing weak links and electrical problems for the last 4 weeks it all came together yesterday at the track.....
!st run 2step @4200 making about 8-9 psi completely blew the tires away and my drive beltafter finding a bracket that supports the power steering pump cracked(hence the reason for pitch the belt) I ran into town and got a short belt to bypass the pump all is well
2nd run lowered the 2step to 3900 now it was making 5-6psi did my burn out staged let the clutch fly run felt really good figured I finally got my 9second passgot my time slip and I almost had a heart attack went as follows
60' 1.402
330' 4.044
1/8 6.089 @123.27
1000' 7.809
1/4 9.258 @156.35mph
this run was at 22lbs of boost with no power shifting
Besides being absolutely thrilled,the car was in one piece and ready for another pass
After a cool down i got back in the lanes,left the 2step where it was and made another pass as follows
60' 1.402
330' 3.952
1/8 5.990 @123.35
1000' 7.713
1/4 9.377 @127.22
this run was at 24lbs of boost,both runs were made on 28-10.50 e.t. drags
thanks for the tires LAST LS1
I'm sure you see the trap speed down a bit compared to the previous run,with good reason ........at the top of 3rd gear the car shut off literally,as i looked in the rear view i saw something come from under the car so i pulled on the return road popped the hood to find my crank trigger reluctor wheel and main drive pulley m.i.a.I'm not really sure what happened but the 4 3/8th's bolts that retain these 2 pieces are snapped off in the balanceri plan on looking at it more closely today.
On that 3rd pass I truly believe it would have been a 8.9X or 9.0X pass just bay looking how much the car was up by the 330',1/8 & 1000' mark,I guess it will have to wait till next season.All in all i had a great day and now my gaols have changed 8's@160
FWIW the only change that was made compared to street trim were the tires and wheels,still have the speaker box in the trunk 3/4 of a tank of 93 octane in the main tank and 7 gallons of c16 in the race tank,last time I weighed the car it was 3740 with me in it,i have a video of the 3rd pass I'll post tomorrow although I think some of the guys out there have it on video as well if thats the case please fell free to post it for me,thanks

WOW.
That is some awesome times. Glad everything finally came together for you. I was hoping to go to byron today but the weather isn't going to hold out. Real damp out here. I guess I'll have to wait untill next year for a 9 second pass.
Congrats.
