Let me see Kracka, the talon is down for a little bit, i will trty to be up for next week though. Good point Swifty about Vassil & Kevin.

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
 

Couldn't match my best from last year, once I figured out how to launch it on these tires I couldn't hit any gears. My clutch switch which allows for no lift to shift as well as antilag between gears in not operational and I was trying to shift upwards of 8000 rpms. Then you get into the whole breaking up in higher gears issue, which we got figured out later in the day. My best pass in the car was 12.14 @ 99, needless to say I was on the brakes hard as to not get kicked out lol. Oh well, glad we went up there and found out what our issues are before the shootout, hopefully it will all be cleared up before then.

I've run a 11.65@127 on 92 octane, I am pretty sure that is one of the quickest, pump gas, numbers on here.
Did you leave patches of rubber for 300+ feet?
I did ;). Its simple, this is the cars 3rd EVER time to the track, first time it was nearly stock. I had serious shifting issues (bad cable) and I need the nitrous to keep it on boost, until I can no lift gears.
I also need some good tires, or to turn the boost down to reasonable for the tires ;(. We'll see how it goes next weekend. With the new cables and the spray.
But 11.540 is slower than 11.53x so you are correct.
131 does trump 123 though ;).

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
 

What kind of 60' and 1/8th mile times were you guys getting?

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
 

Pump schmump. Same difference, going fast means going fast on whatever gas. Run what you brung is always what it ends up being.

the mph doesn't really add up for the power/weight though.. but meh. Supras go 130+ wtih 650 dynojet whp and weigh about the same if not a little less. My ghetto-fied maroon 1g that weighed in at 2995lbs went 132.9mph on high 500s on on that fwhp dynojet.

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
 

I was making 454 whp on a dynojet though :D I am just giving you guys some crap while I can. I have had disappointing trips to the track too, it happens. I don't plan on taking my car to the level you guys are.

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
 

I know ;). I don't know how much power I wasn't making, but I was running 28psi peak and it was very very hot.
I am going to have to boostleak test the system to make sure, but I am pretty sure it was just the intake temps holding me back.

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
 

I need a Shep tranny bad. All this talk of going to the track with some high hp cars is killing me. All I need is a tranny, and all I have is three busted ones.;) I need my 10 second slip.

Here is a basic rundown of my only time at the track with some real power:

Well for a total of three passes total at the current power levels(571fwhp/490tq), and with shifting issues that sound as bad, if not worse then Swannys. At 28lbs(running out of fuel.. would run more otherwise), a 11.4 @ 132 still holds up pretty well. I think two runs were a high 1.7, and a low 1.8 60ft.. But my best run(third) should have been THE run, when an intercooler pipe popped off in the middle of the third run, with my best 60ft ever(1.6x). And with dropping down to 11-12lbs?(Shane may remember)with the pipe mostly off, that run was still an 11.5@122?. That run was my quickest eigth mile as well, I'll have to look for those slips.

I have severe spinning issues in first and second due to street tires as well. It's not that easy to make power, then get a perfect pass. Between relearning how to launch your car, then getting a series of perfect shifts, and not having any mechanical/tunning issues, running the # you want is not as easy as it may seem. So for those who have done it.. congrats. I just need some seat time.

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
 

Yeah, there's a big difference between having a good setup and running a good time at the track. I've been able to leave 300' strips of rubber since 1999, but due to this and that, haven't gotten any better than a couple of lame 11.9s. After two years of shifting problems, got that solved and now I've got fuel issues. You fix one thing and something else pops up, it never ends when you get to a certain level.

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
 

Well then its pretty easy. My car was down on power/time to accelerate or is really heavy.
I bet its the first one, but im going to weigh it tonight. I was spinning very very hard, then bogging into 3rd and slowly pulling thru boost (2 seconds according to aem logs).

Shane:
my 60's ranged from 1.755-1.975 330's were 5.053-5.669.
1/8's were 7.583-8.085 at 87.68-93.26mph
I was spending nearly 2 seconds according to the aem log burning out, then bogging and re-spinning in 1st..spin thru 2nd, and bog the 2-3..build boost from 7psi and get to 22psi 1.5 seconds later, and FINALLY haul out on the track.
I gained anywhere from 36-43mph in the last 1/8 track, pending how shitty it went, but the car was useless/slow the first 1/8 of the track.
Pretty much it was a fun experience to get more seat time ::shrugs::

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
 

Best 60' was a 1.63...

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
 

Were you getting good 1/8th mile times and mphs? On a no traction until 3rd gear run I did 102mph in the 1/8th and then 138mph in the 1/4. On my next pass, when I went 10.4, I got some traction (1.79 60') and it was 109mph in the 1/8th, but then 4th gear broke and ruined the mph.

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
 

If you were bogging on the 2-3 shift, then you need to go ahead and let it bounce off the rev limiter a bit before the shift. It took me a while to figure that out. It lets the tires catch up and you will hook better.

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
 

Yup, I did that in 1-2, and 2-3 unfortunatly. When I could get into third that is.. I can't tell you how many times I've accidently punched the stereo headunit while trying to get into third.

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
 

By bogging I meant I couldn't get 3rd quick enough to keep the boost up (shifter cables issue).

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
 

You guys are too funny :D It's funny to listen to everyone post their times, but then follow it with "I had issues" ... clutch was shot, had shifting issues, traction issues, launch issues, car was breaking up past 7k, etc..etc.. We're all guilty of it. My best is 12.05 @ 117 (last year) but I know that's not the fastest car on here. It is in my area though. I went out to Rock once this year, but like everyone else "I had issues" :) The tensioner that keeps the a/c belt tight, unscrewed itself and was ready to fall off. Didn't catch it till I was home. I think that caused major vibration, thus knock. It's pretty close to the knock sensor. It was either that or shitty year old opened C14 gas or a combo of both. Could only get a 12.10 and that was the first run of the day. Won't go for 11's until this f'n weather cools down.

These times were on a 50trim, at roughly 22-23# full weight 99GSX. I'm happy.

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
 

I weighed my "boat" 3780 race weight w/me in it.
I'd like to get that down to 3600lbs by the end of season, 3700lbs if I keep the a/c.

Somone fill me in, is it worth my time to read this thread or is it a bunch of cock fighting?

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
 

You guessed it.

Re: Fastest Street Car On Style
