Well the rain held off enough to get a full night of racing @ the valley. First off I have to say the car had ALOT more in it, but to be truthful I can't drive the damn thing.

Also I never marked on the boost controller so when I turned the knob I didn't know what psi I was going to run.
I don't care if some people don't believe me, but here are the runs:


#1- 8psi, tires @ 19psi.
60- 2.334
1/8- 9.583
1/8 mph.- 75.16
1/4- 14.817
1/4 mph- 93.54

#2- 18psi, tires @ 18psi, (detonation all the way down the track, racing a wrx sti.)
60- 2.313
1/8- 9.051
1/8 mph.- 81.40
1/4- 13.806 Wrx STI ran: 13.754 @ 100.47 (He beat me by a fender)
1/4 mph- 102.42

#3- 13psi, tires @ 18psi. (racing same wrx sti) Fastest run!!!
60- 2.323
1/8- 9.107
1/8 mph.- 82.14
1/4- 13.828 WRX STI ran: 13.533 @ 100.81 (That thing left me sooooo hard @ line)
1/4 mph- 104.24

#4- 13psi, tires @ 18psi. (Quickest run!!! And I was hard on the brakes!!)
60- 2.286
1/8- 8.964
1/8 mph.- 82.27
1/4- 13.752
1/4 mph- 93.70 ( I was bracket racing........wish I kept on it and lost though)

#5- 13psi, tires @18psi. (Racing and whooping a camaro ss )
60- 2.308
1/8- 9.152
1/8 mph.- 81.40

60- 2.286
1/8- 9.054
1/8 mph.- 81.88
1/4- 13.832 (Whoever says that turbo doesn't lose eff. above 15psi can k.m.a.)
1/4 mph- 101.97

1/8- 9.094
1/8 mph.- 80.71
1/4- 13.873
1/4 mph- 101.93


All runs were using 1/2 a tank of 100 octane gas, bfgoodrich g-force drag radials 205/50/15,
and my Co2. sprayer.

As a side note, I was faster than any of the srt-4's there(I believe there was 4 or 5) and one of them had slicks, profec. e-01, intake, exhaust, fuel pressure reg. etc., lol.
 
I am sorry but some of your numbers are not jiving.

I dont know what the hell you were up to but some of them make no sense.

Good times. I still have yet to get down to the valley. A good friend from work lives nearby so he gets in for free. Noise pollution.
 
13.7 @ 93.....I dont care but that is just not right even if you let off to not break out.That would put you in line for a low 13 second run.
Matt
What are your mods?
 
Ok,after re-reading his mods,with drag radials,I would say he could hit the times he posted ,but not pulling 2.3 60 ft's.

I odnt get it.I know if I had a set of drag radials ,I would be hitting right around 13.7 to 13.9 but I would be pulling 2.0 to 2.1 60 footers.
Hmmm....Makes me thinkie.

i see that 93mph one for sure.
He said he was on the brakes so as not to break out in a bracket...I beleive that ..but what I dont beleive is the time vs the MPH..At 13.7 ,he would have had to drop nearly 10 MPh off of his speed by the time he trapped which would equate to a seriously low 13 second run if he had stayed on it.I will say that no street MSP,on stock ECU or stand alone has hit a low 13 that I know of?

why the **** were all the runs boost completely different were you changing it everytime or what, im having a VERY hard time believe 104 trap speeds with the listed mods you have, unless you are running without doors, roof, trunk, and the car weighs 1000lbs.

the 13.7 @ 93 his trap was so slow because he said he was bracket racing. he let off the throttle at the end of his run to match his time.

i believe him 100%.

Good runs. Pretty much what i told you youd run before.

NO dude ,allof his traps are fine with his ET.The prob is the one where he said he was bracket racing.Read my previous post.The 60 ft times are slow as hell as well.I dunno,something is weird,and I AM THE LAST PERSON TO CALL BS because I hit a 14.07@ 101MPH a long long time ago,before most broke out of the 15's.I guess I was kind of a pioneer for the people that said we couldn't hit thirteens.If I had drag radials,I would hit 13's easy.

Lol........I'm not exactly sure how I would prove these runs to you.......nor do I really feel I need to or should need to. I guess if I wanted to I could scan the slips but then again you guys probably wouldn't believe that anyways.

Dude ...read my posts carefully..I know racing....he has to have some numbers mikxed up or typed wrong.At that speed and time,He would have been in line to click off damn near a 13 flat...Sorry not gonna happen at 13 PSI on a stock ECU.I beleive the times but something is not right.
Matt
 
That run of 13.75 @ 93 was a very hard braking @ the last second, and yes I did win the round even though I broke out (dialed 13.80)

my car traps about the same as urs, but i can pull 2.2s on street tires, i dont see how you are runnign 13.6's with those 60's...
 
mp5jeff said:
im curious what 60's you pull on street tires, obviously you can't drive so it makes it hard to believe this.
Who are you talking to?
Hopefully not me?
I pulled 2.1 60 footers on the RE040's.
