amazing. i love the car too, wicked clean and love the color and look. what tires r u running? i know someone said drag radials in a previous thread but those look like either hoosier QTP's or Hoosier slicks. when records like these are set it takes a COMPLETE setup to achieve. and that is when u know u have the ultimate car. congrats again.

Well done. Is there any way we could get a little list of what's done to the car? I know you don't want to divulge all the secrets but if you could share a few things I'd appreciate it. I'm not trying to steal any secrets, I won't ever be aiming for any cam only records.
Which stock heads are you using? 241 or 853?

Cam is an out of the box T-Rex
Fast 90 intake

Custom y-pipe and single muffler
Under drive crank pulley
Electric waterpump
OEM alternator
Tuned by SSPerformance
TH350 trans with a break

WOW, Thats amazing man!
Congratulations on the new record!
It should hang around for quite a while I would think. It's gonna be VERY HARD to beat that time!

I bet one day someone will break it and do it at like 2500 pounds or something.
9's on a T-REX at 2900 pounds is impressive.

very nice to say the least... :p
I have seen ALOT of cars run great with the T-REX cam in them. I know of a few that have gone 10.xx cam only using it.
And now, 9's.

If you think a 4th gen f body can get to 2500 lbs and be single digit legal for tech purposes, good luck. I'm trying for 2800 with a 230 lb driver, and believe me that's proving to be damn difficult.
This record, was also set at probably one of the fastest tracks in the country and was done in mid november conditions... that being said there's usually only a hand full of days that any track is open and the weather will support this type of performance.
That's not meant to be a dig.. these guys spent the time on the car, did their homework, and waited for the best possible conditions to make it happen, and got the job done.

[QUOTE=JL ws-6;14143746] Never said it would be legal or at least safe haha..... I meant with no driver..... with a driver I don't see it happening.
I have no problem with someone setting a record at a hooking track and with perfect weather conditions....... if you (someone) can get an edge then why not.
Yeah, not a fan at all of iron........ never again... to heavy.
