IX Drag Run

I ran a 13.377 @ 106.29mph with a lousy 60' of 1.972 with mods of MBC set @ 21psi & cone air filter. This is my best run out of 4 since 2 of my other runs I bogged & 1 did not go into 3rd gear. Also the track was not helping at all due to both lanes have a pothole about 4" to 5" in diameter that runs across about 5 feet from the tree. The pothole is un-avoidable since it runs across the track. I guess I have to learn how to launch this IX since my old technique from my VIII is not working for the IX. Also I did not use the stock 5k launch limiter (disconnected) & clutch restrictor out. The track was very busy with a lot of cars. I saw about 4 blue evo's plus my buddy's silver evo out at the track last night. I know that with this mph I can break into the 12's as long as I get a good 60" time (see my signature).

Should be in the 12s easy with a 1.7 60ft. Thats an awesome mph for those mods!!

Yup. I just need a good 60' similar to what I was getting on my VIII & I will break the 12's easy with this mod only. That mph is nuts & that is why I traded my VIII for the IX.
