1st Pass 9.67@153mph on the New Setup!!!

well we made 1 shakedown run on the new setup.. The track we were at tonight sucks for traction. the car pulled a 1.71 60ft when we usually pull 1.43's.. The car spun hard in 1st some of 2nd and ran a 9.67@153mph.. We got kicked out of the track cause i still dont have my license.. We are on our way to another track 3 hours away for tomorrow and then sunday were going to orlando speedway for import wars.. This is a full street car w/o AC and well be running 3 tracks in 2 days.. We have alot of setup adjustments to make.. this was on a 24.5x8 mickeys.

btw.. the turbo seems to work decent so far after all..also, I wanna thank Buschur Racing for building a great Shortblock for us!!!

60ft- 1.710
330- 4.350
1/8- 6.432@117.98
1000- 8.196
1/4- 9.670@152.98

Is it me or does every single post about a drag time include some sort of excuse as to why they didn't do better? Your time is great so why can't you just say everything was good?

Congrats, I am glad once off the dyno and on the track you are happier with the set up. You picked up a bunch of MPH compared to before, very nice.

savaho, have you ever attempted to run a high HP EVO at the track? A true racer is never happy............too many variables and always the ability to just go a little faster.

Stop talking

With a well prepped track and a good 60ft those times will be lower so yes he can have an "excuse" cuz he CAN do better.

Great times either way, goodluck with your races these next two days

we are extremely happy with the time we ran considering the frist pass with the new setup. I was just noting the 60ft and saying how the car has alot left in it.
