Linn1647545492 Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 i was thinking same thing You two are idiots, stop thinking peak numbers. The power curve is flat, what's not to love about having power every where? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbotrio Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 (edited) Guess not. I never said it did. Just that you better be running 10s if you hope to beat it Jeff Edited May 14, 2009 by Turbotrio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOPR Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 The power curve is flat, what's not to love about having power every where? thats true, but it'd be even better if the torque curve was flat and the power curve went up as the RPM's did. by the way is this car 2wd or 4wd?

GSXRAntwon Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 It ran 11.88 @ 116 on 100 jets, next track day he's going with the current 150 jets and going to try and get this thing to leave harder.... He told me it had 150 jets in it at the track.....weird? Nice powa Peanut! Look at that torque NOPR, the SUV is 2wd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbotrio Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 He told me it had 150 jets in it at the track.....weird? Nice powa Peanut! Look at that torque He thought he did but never got a chance to dyno it prior. On the jets he had in at the track it only made an additional 85-90rwhp.

Nitrousbird Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 I never said it did. Just that you better being running 10s if you hope to beat it Jeff Says who? Ask how many 700RWHP Supra owners that are stuck in the 12's. The track is a lot more than just dyno-racing. I've beat cars lighter and more powerful at the track, because they can't put the power down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miller Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 You two are idiots, stop thinking peak numbers. The power curve is flat, what's not to love about having power every where? Then what's with the 2 seperate ledges where the torque flatlines before the nitrous oxide hit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 Then what's with the 2 seperate ledges where the torque flatlines before the nitrous oxide hit? Its the converter flashing, possibly combining with a little bottle pressure. Really good power curve though, in all analysis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that you better being running 10s if you hope to beat it Jeff actually it looks like 11.50's would put it on the trailer unless my math is wrong either way thats fucking moving out in a heavy ass suv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qtr_pndr Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 Do any of them run 10s ? Find one of them and I have $20 on it It ran 11.88 @ 116 on 100 jets, next track day he's going with the current 150 jets and going to try and get this thing to leave harder.... had to point it it out but it seems this one doesn't run 10s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've beat cars lighter and more powerful at the track, because they can't put the power down. Tommy has made about 37 passes so far this year in his TBSS. Its a built auto. Its consistent as hell. Running 11.80s with only 80ish HP from the spray as opposed to the 130ish HP he has now will drop that to low 11s all day. The 80hp addition from the spray took it from 13.0s to 11.80s for reference last weekend. I didn't think it took a rocket-scientist to conclude that you would need to run high 10s to beat something running low 11s lol. I guess I was wrong... Jeff PS -- Even if it runs 12.0's I have yet to be told about a faster one that would like to show up and race tonight / tomorrow night / Friday night / this weekend? Why don't you bring the Formula out of hibernation to get walked by a Big-ass SUV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fast2gfwd Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 I find it very hard to believe that a trailblazer that shaved 7 tenths with a 100 shot is gonna wake the fuck up on another 50.. for a total of 150shot and run a 10???? no he was running a 150 at the track just admit it... he will...lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will run low 11s easily based on the power picked up on the dyno after what it ran at the track last weekend. Tommy told everybody he was running a 150-shot because he thought he was. If gaining 80-ish rwhp equals a 150-shot then I guess he is running a 300-shot now lol. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitrousbird Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 Why don't you bring the Formula out of hibernation to get walked by a Big-ass SUV Walked? My Formula went faster (and trapped a lot higher) than this TBSS has ever went, on its old setup. I hope to have time to put the car back together once we move into our new house...other, more important things have come along the past year and a half that haven't allowed me to touch it. The parts are there to get her back on the road. Oddly in your equation, traction somehow doesn't come into play with extra HP. Or that fact that it is FAR harder to go from 12.0 to 11.0 than to go from 13.0 to 12.0. And just because you haven't heard of a faster TBSS in the area doesn't mean there isn't one, and doesn't mean there isn't one willing to race at the drop of a hat.

Or that fact that it is FAR harder to go from 12.0 to 11.0 than to go from 13.0 to 12.0. Since I have seen it make full passes (And hook-up) in front of the shop on the same slicks he races on at the track I am pretty sure traction won't be an issue. I would only hope that Trails or Kilkare is better prepped than Harmon Ave lol. Tommy has been the "Wheel-man" while Eric is tuning for too many 600 / 700 / 900 / 1000 / 1100 HP cars to count so I think he knows how to drive just a little bit The thread title was obviously Eric being sarcastic. I honestly could care less if there are 50 faster TBSS' in Columbus. I only responded because somebody said there were for sure and if so I would put money on that race all day long. Where are they at? Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbotrio Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 Walked? My Formula went faster (and trapped a lot higher) than this TBSS has ever went, on its old setup.

The two of us have known each other long enough and I think it would be a little bit of fun for the both of us. I'm thinking next Friday at Trails would work. Hell, I'll just call Tommy and see what he thinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its enough I just might let him take a day off and toss in a 427 Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
