Went to a track rental today at trails. Was a 25 car max rental. I ran a constant 12.1@110 in the Jeep, Had a strong wind today. Hooked good the first couple times, after the track heated up I was spinning off the line.

 

On to some photo's... Congrats to TurboNova as I think he hit a new PB today, I missed his huge wheelie but caught a smaller one.

 

Sadly I ran into a silver challenger with 426 hemi badges.... I went over to check it out and it was a stock 5.7L :dumb: With a kenny bell on it from Pickups plus. They were 13.4 area I think.. Claimed 510 whp.

very cool!!! thanks so much rocky!

 

Pm me your email and I can get you full res shots.

 

Yeah the 25 car limit was bull shit. The $$ was also way too much. 50$.

 

But there was rarely a line so you could run many times.

Tires look to be regular radials on it, but it still should have pulled a better ET. Wonder what the trap speed was.

Yeah that's what I was thinking, that should be an easy low-12 second car at least, with 510whp

Congrats on the runs Rocky. That thing moves as does TurboNova's car.

 

The Challenger did make 510 on our dyno on a cooled down glory pull. The owner is a really nice guy and the car is on street tires. It is a 6 spd manual car and makes instant tq so launching it is sort of tricky. Most of the 60's times he was pulling were in the 2.3-2.38 range. I took it down the track once and on a 2.25 60' went 13.2x in the 112 range. On a set of tires, it would be a 12 second car easily. With a few more passes in it, I could have had it in the 12's on the street tires. The mph is lower than what I would have expected on the street tires. We just did a 6.1 auto car with the same blower that made similar power and went 12.04@120.7 on street tires. Unfortunately I didnt have any logging equipment with me to get a log of the car down the track. The car was on e with the fuel light on. I would have liked to have logged it going down the track to see what was happening with temps, if there was any kr, etc.. Unfortunately I did not bring any datalogging equipment to log the car with. I was out there to help Chad from On3 with his twin turbo 5.0. On his base 6 psi kit for the 5.0 , his car went 10.73@131.
