  • Almost mid 14s!!!!

    I ran against a 98ish looking white mustang cobra.

    He ran 13.539 @ 105.53 MPH

    I ran:
    r/t:------.695
    60'------2.299
    330------6.268
    1/8------9.576
    MPH-----74.52
    1000----12.397
    1/4-----14.762
    MPH-----95.56

    The cobra won by a margin of .9755.

          Finally! :D

          Too bad that even though you have less mods you still run better times than everyone thinks I will.

          Congrats anyway man, hey and by the way, what happened with the tire issue? Did you get some nittos? or just some bigger tires.

                  That was an awesome run! I'm glad I got to see you other guys run instead of trying to do another run and embarrassing myself again... I hope I'll soon be in the 14's also. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

                        Dude, what kind of weather did you have? I'm just trying to under stand this. I can accept the 1/4 et, a lot of people have done it, but not w/ that sort of 60'. Another thing that's throwing me off is your mph compared to your hp and tq readings... it just doesn't make sense having less than 180rwhp and a 96mph trap speed Oh well, it's not my place to call [img]graemlins/bs.gif[/img] , if you did it, congrats man! Way to drive! [img]graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

                          Okay the weather was kinda humid/cloudy/around 50-60 degrees. The rwhp/rwtq numbers I have below in my sig is 2 years old. Thats back when I had only 3"catback/lid/K&N filter. There are two more bout this run that will confuse you even more... I did 14.7 peg-leg, full street trimmed and on stock 215s tires. :eek: [img]graemlins/omg.gif[/img]

                          I know its unbelievable, even I can't still believe it to this day! People have seen it, they saw my slip and hopefully I can get it scan or have it taken in digicam along with the number on my car that I ran with real soon.

                          I can't imagine what will I run w/ LSD/drag radials/3.42s(or 3.73s)/better Y pipe or CIA headers/some weight reduction and powershifting.

                          14.2-14.5 sounds really niiice and 96-97 MPH trap speed sounds awesome. :D :D :D

                            ricecooker: one thing you gotta take into account is his car is a stripper model. no options. that would help lighten the load alot. no ttops, no power windows or door locks, etc. i think it's definitely possible, light car, light driver, good driver, and good mods.
                            i was swimming in the carribean. animals were hiding behind the rocks except for the little fish, but they told me the squid\'s trying to talk to me. oink, oink. where is my mind?

                              From what I have read over at ls1tech.com, HRP had one HECK of a racing weekend.. The weather was perfect.

                              An NA stock cubed LS1 went 10.6 at HRP over the weekend.
