Thanks for all the positive comments folks.

 

Weather looks good today. Hopefully, we can get the et DOWN and the traps UP.

Congrats on the big numbers man! Was the car sprayed?

 

The 10 sec pass was all boost, 28 psi and lazy slow shifts(obvious in video).

 

The 141 trap was with a 50 shot for pre-spool, off at 20 psi, 31 psi total boost. Bogged launch(obvious in video).

is this the orignal "two weeks" car?

congrats on the tens, not to many 3S's have made it there.

 

any pics or details of the car

 

I hope it was never dubbed two weeks. It's been over two years. :D Two different set-ups though. Used to have twin GT3076R's.

 

IPS stage 3 shortblock:

Hand ported heads with ARP studs

Hardweld Webcam "race spec" cams (soon to be replaced with IPS 280's)

Chrome silicon springs with titanium keepers/retainers

IPS single kit with GT4202, journal bearing

MSD coils, wires and DIS4-HO

1600 cc injectors

3 Walbro pumps

NX wet kit

AEM ems

 

That's the basics.

 

Thanks Linn. :) Going to Norwalk Friday?

Surprisingly, no they didn't. The tech inspector was hard core on us though. Apparently you need a fire jacket and gloves for 11.50's. I had neither.

 

Told the tech guy we were hoping for 11's. He asked "high 11's or low 11's"? Renner and I both looked at each other and said "Oh, HIGH 11's if we're lucky, these cars are pigs". :lol:

 

I have an 8 point cage, but no loop, no scatter shield, no jacket or gloves. The 141 was the absolute last pass for any car that day so it didn't matter what happened there.

 

Trails is getting really strict, and always seems to be stupidly busy. Probably avoid them in the future.

Ahh ok. Yeah Jeff is actually taking a proactive stance on his for once. She's under the knife and will be up sometime over the winter. All hand built headers, downpipe, etc. so it takes a little while. Only work on it in the evenings and weekends when Renner is free and none of the other IPS cars need attention.

 

No pics yet. This is going to be a kit that IPS will retail. It's very innovative and they don't want the design ripped off. They want to produce another kit before pics will be released, just to make sure it is repeatable. :)

 

Spinning it to 8,300 to 8,500. Clean, no knock whatsoever, but it's not tuned to the ragged edge either. ;)

why would you need four 255lph pumps if each one supports 600whp

and sorry but no i dont think youll ever make 2400whp on a stealth engine.

 

overkill doesnt describe it, three would be overkill.

 

You don't just multiply hp ratings on pumps when you stack them. There's more math to it than that.

Tranny is still fine, as well as the t-case. ;)

 

Went 10.92 @ 138 on only 23 psi Friday. Also went 140.87 on 28 psi, no spray. And whipped a modded Ford GT on my last pass. GT went 11.642 @ 132.90 and I went 11.237 @ 135.58, after I hit the limiter in 3rd at 8063 rpms and rode it out the last 100 feet of the track. GT boys should feel lucky we were only spinning it to 8 grand and that I can't 60' my car to save my life. These were all 2.0+ 60's in an awd car...

 

Car is un-hurt and still kicking ass. :cool:

I agree. My short track is plain horrible. Got to get the 60's down and everything else will fall into place.

 

I only got 4 passes Friday. The guy at the starting line was stupidly anal about the track. 2 passes, then down for 10-15 minutes while he mopped and torched....wash, rinse, repeat...ad nauseum. It was freakin painful, it took so damn long.
