You said the other couple runs where in the 11s. 11s at what MPH. Also can you just post the full timeslip not really a picture. I'm interested in the 330 and the 1000ft ets.

I by no means am trying to discredit the 10.6 or anything. Just trying to get a little more info that is all.

1/4 mile 10.625 at 123.305
The 1/8 mile time tells a better story! This came from an 1/8 mile dragstrip website. It looks like a possible 10.45 if he kept the momentum going.

Lets just say Alex drove the wheels off the car. I will let him take my car down the track anytime.

There is NO WAY possible to run a 6.7 @ 100mph with a 1.61 60ft like claimed..

It's funny that there is no 60ft listed but yet you knew it was a 1.61 60ft.

This is a complete run of my good friends RX7 on stock twins

2nd run=:
60'= 1.488 <==Yes, on ET streets !!
330= 4.492
1/8= 6.986 @99.38 mph
990= 9.087
1/4= 10.988 @ 121.68 mph

Basically the Lancers 60ft had to be in the 1.37-1.41 range to go 6.7 @ 100mph

Sorry but until you back that up I don't see how any one can claim it's a legit 10.6, the numbers just don't jive.. As far as you keeping mentioning the fact that he has tons of money and beautiful cars does change they way numbers can be achieved.

Still like to see how the other runs compare

HOW ABOUT SOME ****ING RESPECT! aight my rant is over

not being a dick, but no way does that car weigh in at 2880 lbs with the minor weight reduction mods that were mentioned. The bumper support weighs a little over 10lbs!! he'd have to lose almost 400lbs. Weight is not an easy thing to shed off a car (unless you gut it and chop it up), especially when it already has lightweight parts built into it (body parts, seats, suspension, ect..). My new EVO VIII I'm building has a target weight of 2950-3000lbs empty while still looking stock. AC will be gone along with a lot other things but it's not going to be easy.
With the parts on the car and the boost level it was run at, the car should be creeping up on 600whp, which could put it into the 10.6's range with a very good 60' time pulling under power the whole way down the track, but from the time slip I can't even tell the 60' times. What broke in the drivetrain BTW??

One of my customers with my parts ran an 11.5 with a ridiculous low 60' time and mph and I told him it was impossible, a fluke, a timing error. I didn't jump on boards and brag how I was home to the fastest stock engine'd small turbo car in the world. Sometimes it happens that the timing systems gets screwed up by debris or other things, that's why you have to back up runs in any proffesional sanction drag racing league. Again, I'm not ripping these guys apart but just questioning the supposed facts, like the weight of the car, the RPM at which it crossed the finish line, why it makes no horsepower over 7K rpm (that's why the mph was low, but then it broke the transfer case causing the low mph??), which I still haven't gotten a legit reply to.........

It looks like the slip says 4.274 for the 330ft.
This is not consistant with the 100mph 1/8, 123mph 1/4, or 1.6 60ft(guess)

looks like there was a timing error on the run.

the only way to settle this is a return track visit or post the other slips from that night.

I think boasting this car is a 10 second car is jumping the gun.
