Default 5th gen vs Mellon Racing Evo *VID*

VID IN POST 8


We went from a mid-2nd roll. He didn't hear honks so I immediately jumped out pretty hard on him but he reeled me in pretty good. Vids will be uploaded either later tonight or tomorrow morning. Both cars had a passenger. He stopped my pull and began to reel me in. When he hit 4th I think he was going to walk me pretty hard. Vid will show it all better. I had to let off because of a slight curve and I'm on slicks.

You're on a pretty good losing streak.

I wouldn't stress the losses... you've been running against some ridiculous cars. In on 1 for the vids.

Foxbody from hell was a vortech 383 stroker lightened car vs a cam only L99. With my new tune and 8psi I was able to pretty much go side by side with him until 4th where he would start pulling. He blew his V3 and is coming back with a V7 so I'm going to push 12psi on stock internals. Hopefully my girl will last. If not, 416 stroker time and 16psi.

Yeah...

6xx @ low 3000 vs
6xx @ 4000


I knew he would eat me alive but this is more of a starting race to see what improvements I will get when I swap skinnies in and boost 12psi.

Makes me miss my EVO.......cheap, fast, easy to work on, reiterate cheap, fast, easy to work on.


Every so often I secretly look for one......that's already fully done right pushing 700-800awhp to buy. Just haven't ever found one that fit's the bill.

Local Guy has a evo that made 813whp and 5xxwtq. On his 3rd built engine. Has over 100k in the car with all his setups. Plus beefing drivetrain up.
