I went to the track this weekend for the 1st time with my new 427 setup (see link below)... on Saturday in 4075FT DA it went 10.5's on the motor but felt a little sluggish off the line due to my really tight 3 disk nitrous converter... today I tried a 150HP shot on the TNT Ring Kit... the converter liked this a little more

Details about my car...

Very nice they only get faster too.

 

looks great man

who built the 700r4? can you give me some details on it?

 

Here's a video of the car's very 1st spray pass with the new combo from Saturday... my good buddy and engine builder was kind enough to take it down the track for me to make sure it was safe for me to drive

that is bad ***

 

Congrats man, dont have to worry about getting in the 9s anymore, now you have to worry about getting it in the 8s

 

I got the track photographer to remove the watermark from the photo above

 

The shop that built my motor has a killer tranny guy... they have already gone 9.2's with an OD tranny... I'll PM you thier info!

 

Bad ***!

 

Congrats & welcome to the 9 second club.

Coach

 

Time to update your sig pic.

Congrats again Andre.

 

Haha. i can see Wade in the background. badass man. props to Autroworx. I don't remember if I saw your car while I was up there or not. But keep up the good work!

 

My car was pulled out of storage after your car left... they where so busy getting your car ready for you that they did not have a chance to work on mine

 

Thats a good running Formula, congrats.

 

Congrats... What did you mph on motor?

 

10.5 @ 129 1.48... 4000ft DA... 3 disk 3500RPM nitrous converter is really holding me back on the motor... it was even a little tight with the 150HP shot... I was thinking about getting another converter, but I am not sure how much more money I want to invest in the A4 tranny... mid 9's is really pushing it, I just put it up for sale and have my eyes on a glide...

 

Very nice, congrats on the times

Derek

 

Andre, great ET/mph!

You are still planning on running on the street right? I would go TH400 if you are going to drive the car on the street a fair bit. Also you are a little on the heavy side for the glide imo.

Best of luck with the car, I think you have just scratched the surface with it
