You did good. Fast 2v for sure. Which trim did you have in it for boost?
Did you run your 11.1 @ 130 on street tires?

why am I not surprised people arent impressed with cutting 1.7 seconds off your previous best in one track visit. Good runs. Slam some gears man. Raise the gear so you can cross the traps in third gear. I see high 10s and 135 traps in your future. Shifting right around the 1200 ft mark is killing your mph. Awesome gains and you still have a savage amount left in it.

A turbo car with that power can do it in three gears. You dont need fourth with that thing. Gear change and power shift, easy 10s at mid 130s. Done!

I'm impressed. Just some has to poke at some things and overlook other things to their advantage.

Thanks my man! I wish i could pass the traps in 3rd. It ends around 110 thought :/ I'm definitely happy overall. The car impressed me. I didn't think I would do that well.

Great runs! Get's me more excited about my turbo build! What size turbo do you have on it? I'm going with a tc76, but I'll only be pushing about 6lbs until I get the tranny built. I would love to have traps that high though!

i was so glad to get that text haha. Awesome job. You have a hell of a 122mph car there.. Last time I checked, our estimates were spot on (just saying)

More to be had with the shifts too, but im suprised the trans even took that.

i would drop the gear into the 2.XX area. That will help you build a lot of steam in first gear since you will actually spool the turbo for a while. It will cut one of your shifts out of the equation. Your car makes enough tq and is light enough to still cut a mean 60 ft. Id run that car as a 3 gear wonder.

all he's gotta do is throw a 28" tire on at the track and that will drop him into the 2.xx range (gear wise). but i agree with you. and even if its not enough to get through the traps, powershifting 4th is the easiest of all so that could help too.

Turbos are a blast! I have a 76mm turbonetics with a .96 a/r hotside.

Haha man I was texting everyone. I was so pumped. I'm suprised the trans/whole drivetrain took it! I went there expecting something to break. A Trans am broke their rear end, and my buddies Mach 1 broke an axle. Damn radials...

Thank you. Yeah, I was on the edge of powershifting, but couldn't justify doing it and breaking something and not be able to drive it home!

Don't you guys have a 2v forum to stroke your penises on?

On another note, nice running 2v OP. I can respect that.
