Update 10.4 at 142mph on cheap tires!

Alright guys i think im done getting any better launches with the Federals tires i got for $400 bucks for all 4 spinning really bad out of the hole. Here is the good stuff for the night


Now were going to get slicks put on run 9s than go with a custom built 42r kit by Extreme Turbo Systems.

My English Racing built car held together awesome with over 40 passes this weekend.
I would say with the slicks we will get a 1.5 60ft and hit 145mph. The Tilton clutch let me keep my foot on the gas and not lift once while i was shifting

So English racing's kit has taken you as far as you go you think? Now to Extreme Turbo systems for a new kit? OK, so who will the sponsor be?

Ahh i need to update that. We were getting knock pushing e85 and meth to 38psi
if the meth didn't spray just right we would see a knock spike. I would say e85 is good till 30psi before it needs some help.
We are running c-16 with about 1500cc of meth spraying

What are you revving to RPM wise?
How much boost were you running on those passes?

That's awesome stuff. I like seeing porky vehicles run fast. I like that second 1/8th.
