The car made 2 10sec. passes yesterday.

10.8 @ 131mph and 10.9 @ 133mph.

Congrats goes to Kevin Lawson for driving the car!
Imagine how I feel going 156.92 and a 10.3 pass this weekend - I think I can relate to your feeelings (it could be worse though)

I'm more frustrated the other way around... I can drive pretty well but don't have a car that allows me to prove that

If it hadn't been for the Winged Warrior event coming up this coming weekend we would have made more passes and I gaurantee you the car would have kept going faster. I wanted to save it for the coming event. At this power level anything can break at anytime so it was best to call it a day.

Amazingly, the car is running a STOCK RS Transfer case, STOCK driveshaft, STOCK rear end, STOCK rear axles. Transmission is also STOCK except for new syncros by Bushwacker, my brother.

The car has always had large brakes on it like it came equipped with. So no I am not running stock EVO brakes but I am running stock sized Giro disc rotors and stock calipers.

I like the Toyo tires. The car would be much faster on slicks but I'd have to take the stock sized large brakes off and go to some drag brake set up. I am not willing to do that, it is not a drag car. It is a car that does everything well and that's what I built it to do. Everything on the car is a slight compromise from what it could be if I built it to do just ONE thing really well.

For example. If it was drag only, I could easily take 300 pounds out of it, run small lightweight brakes, slicks and change the alignment.

The black car should be out in the next few weeks. It is at the chassis shop having some safety work done on it.
You could always run Evo 8 RS JDM brakes.

Indeed. The only sprayd' the 330 once in the day. By the time the Evo ran the 9.7x, there was NO VHT visible tot he 60ft mark.


Congrats to Dave, Jrod, Trent, and the rest of the BR crew! It was a great day all-around.












And Jrod-you win. I only got 11.0's our of the F4.

What was wrong with your car? Didn't get those boost issues straightened out?

Al & Jarrod, you guys are talking as if a 10 second pass isn't good!

I understand the power level you guys are at, but at least you made it down the track without blowing something up.

Common Jarrod, practice makes perfection .... Everyday you come out of work, practice your launch... That's what I do since I got a long strait... I'm sure you're capable of a 10 sec pass!!! Keep trying bro, I still got faith in yea!

The launch really isnt the problem most of the time. Its the other 1260 feet that gets me.

Jrod,

What turbo did you have on your car when running 10 sec. passes?
