AWW$HEEET Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 11.65 for a FI car? seems like you should be faster on that setup, not trying to hate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

99ta Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 i think its pretty good. mph seems low for the ms4 and fast. but that could be due to the gears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, I thought about that but the 28" tall tire takes away some of the gear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUTAN TA1647545492 Posted August 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 I think were gonna take it to a different track and log some more runs. Im sure the car has a high 11.4 low 11.5 in it before we start getting into the motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam1647545489 Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 That seems about right for that mph. Doesnt seem to low for an auto car. Good times for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAWDAD Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 I have heard from friends that their E.T. & MPH are down at MCIR. It's not just you (or the car that you are talking about) I haven't run my car there yet, but I am expecting slower times when I run my car there.

wagner Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 How does he like that TH400 and how does it do on the street? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUTAN TA1647545492 Posted August 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 How does he like that TH400 and how does it do on the street? Well, for the most part he loves it but he doesnt do much freeway driving. He did drive it to Marion though (@ an hour and 20 min) and its about 3200-3400 at 70 lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillbot Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 Looks about right to me Well, for the most part he loves it but he doesnt do much freeway driving. He did drive it to Marion though (@ an hour and 20 min) and its about 3200-3400 at 70 lol OUCH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUTAN TA1647545492 Posted August 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 It was only that bad because he drove it to the track on different wheels that were only 25.8 tall so he didnt put extra miles on his drag radials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
