Hey Jeremy whats been going on? Haven't talked to you since the Day at the track when I ran my 10 second pass! (10.993 @125.61 mph 1.659 60' NA)
Well I ran across some pics from the day we were at ORP and you put the hurtin on me lol. So if you want to copy them, Here they are.
Good Job with the car once again. I'm hoping to get a mid 10 second pass out of mine next year on motor and 9's on spray!


I'm sure you remember how shitty the track was that day huh! (Tuesday night street legal for the Loss) haha

Those are pretty cool. Thanks.

My car is back to it's fast time zone lately. It ran a 10.19 at the RPM track day and that same week it ran a 10.18 at ORP. This is with a afr of 11.2-11.5:1. I would like to lean it out to around 12.0-12.5:1 and see if it gain a lil more ET.

Just finished reading this long thread. You came a long way and your results are out standing. 10.13 on motor would have me grinning from ear to ear. The year is not over yet so maybe you will hit your goal of 9.99 NA. I hope you get there - good luck.

Nice job at Memphis, A few adjustments should get u in the 9's. Let me know when you ready to sell me that hood, we talked about it at Memphis. Oh and congrats on winning down here, hopefully you can give me some pointers on getting my 88 notch finished and running 10's.

I was really happy to wim the true street 11.0 class. 10's are easy in a fox. A pretty stockish motor car do it with a good A3 or A4.

nice meeting you.

A few pics I finally got around to uploading from the LSX shootout. The guy shot about 10 pics of my car over the weekend. These are the only two I bought from them.

That car should make the cover of GM HighTech. You got my vote.

LOL, Thanks but I don't think they would put a mustang on the cover even though it is a LSX power plant.

Maybe some day I will send in some good photo's and a list of mods with a brief story behind it.

The NMCA results from Memphis are posted in there Fastest Street Car magizie. I did pretty good compared to the rest of the index classes. Hopefully I can go for the 10.00 index. And the event has moved to St.louis, MO at Gate Way International Raceway.

The motor and tranny are out and the new setup is under way. I'm switching to a super victor intake, changing the cam to a custom grind spec'd by Patrick G, it will be a solid roller. We are putting the Edlebrock nitrious plate kit on it with a nano bottle and dedicated fuel pump for the system. I'm also going to get the chassis cert done before spring so that is one less thing to worry about. I will wait til we spray it to get the liceinsing done.

Sounds like it'll be a nice combo come spring, I also just ditched the vic jr in exchange for the super vic or an L92 setup, still undecided.

My next motor will be a 408/L92/super vic/dominator carb. That will be a killer..

They can be had cheap these day's. You can find rollers, ready to go with cage and all for $3K-$5K.

It could be done on a budget of $8K-$10K with a junk yard 6.0L and th350 and go out and run mid to low 10's easy.

Very cool project! I'm going to build up one of these cars myself... I just picked one up this weekend. But I have a lot of research to do before I start cutting it apart.
