I stay super impressed with the Vikings especially the Cruisader valving. My F body goes 1.155-1.16 on 235/60/15 @ 3090lbs. They worked better than the revalved Menscers I had.

I have always had good success with them on other cars. My buddy has an 800whp fox that is pretty light but cuts 1.1xs
I am 100% it is my suspension tuning skills.
I have changed ride height and added weight here and there without doing too much extra attention to the all around measurments.
That is badass man! IF you have any special ideas or tips I am all ears! Id absolutely love to get this car sub 1.2's
I have the standard Viking's and have been 1.32 60ft with 410rwhp. Around 475rwhp now and have been a bunch of 1.30's and hopefully high 1.2x's in cooler air. Rode a 18" wheelie out about 40ft on the streets of mexico also
I made 26 1/8th mile hits and 6 1/4 hits this week. I tried everything under the sun that people have suggested to me. Either I still suck. Or as suspected these vikings need replaced. Not only for the lack of ability. But possibly wear. I have had them on the car for 2 years. Probably 6,000 miles on the street. 100-120 passes? They dont seem to hold under rebound settings as well as they used to. For instance when I puch the car down in the rear the car responds nearly instantly. It used to hold down for several moments with a higher Rebound setting. Anywho. IT is that time of year for me up here in michigan. I went out with a bang and just found a happy median. The car runs real well down the track now at the least.
Not real sure if I caught the radial or bias play. I finally threw my radials in the trash. Track prep has to be perfect for those to work. Went to bias plys and haven't had any issues. Rears are 4 back from full tight c and 9 back from ft on the rebound. Can't push the rear down by hand it's to stiff.

How many passes on those slicks? And are they stiffwall?
Yes, stiff wall. 32 passes in the last 7 days. Maybe 15 before then? It hasnt worked an ounce since I turned up the boost. Made one wastegate pass to an 8.89@154 1.33 60 leaving on 5 psi. Its 100% gotta be the car. Im going to raise it up more and do a set of afcos. Put a radial back on it. Unfortunately it is winter time and I am out of time for the year. I have some stuff around my house and shop to get taken care of before it snows or else id try more.
probably 2-3 more track days left this year.

The crusaders are on the car in your sig with the 440ci?
All 4 corners?
I keep coming back to them because I really dont want to drop 2-2,300 in shocks on the car.
I know Justin Jordan is going 4.70s@154 in a 3,400 pound 12 mustang. 7.3@190+ He loves the crusaders.
The only thing that makes me debate is so many of the fast fbody guys use the afco/menscers.

Subscribe to Menscers Facebook page and keep an eye out. I bought a set on the scratch and dent sale. I was just going to buy Fronts, but couldn't say no. Paid $1600 for all 4. Sold my Vikings and offset that to about $800-900.

Oh boy. That is awesome!! I appreciate it. I will do that!

Just thought I'd mention too that JPC just went 6.99 @200 (4.51 1/8 mile) on a set of Viking Crusaders as well in combination with our off the shelf components

Yea they are riding. Mid 1.16 ish 60's.
I think most fbody guys skip right by the crusader valving. The menscers are definitely the go to on the fbodies. I was going to try crusaders but ended up catching the menscers on sale last week there.
That is something I am quickly coming to realize is many people simply don't know about the Crusader valving option. They work, and aren't terribly expensive. Only about $150 more per pair than the standard Warriors

I didnt know about them either. I was still in Ocala at Speedline when I bought them two years ago. I set the dealer account up and they even recommended the warriors to me!
