coltboostin Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 First pass off the street. Just rolling it out to check the tune up. Broke the already dying rear end when I tried to launch it next pass. Hopeful to make a stick shift race on the 28th More to come! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Quik7 Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 I know you spend a lot of time fabbing parts and things....you should use the leftovers to fab a tombstone, driving these golf cart cars at those speeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure after the last big wreck he has it on standby. :gabe: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coltboostin Posted October 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 1Quick7 it was honestly a very easy drama free pass. It was much sketchiest when I last had it out and it was spinning the rear the front, then rear tires due to a worn VC. Welding the center diff fixed that issue.

Red Beard Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 Holy catch up bat man! That 330-1/8 was like you lit a rocket under your ass! lol Curious to see a shot of progression from your time slip on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Beard Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 Jesus bro, thing was movin! I could only imagine, with an actual launch, what you could scrub out of that 1/4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coltboostin Posted October 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 Jesus bro, thing was movin! I could only imagine, with an actual launch, what you could scrub out of that 1/4 In theory- 8s. A few DSMs are in the 8s at 155-157. I'd have to launch it like I hated it to get there tho and have a perfect 1/8th, neither of which is likely lol. I'd be happy with consistent, easy mid 9s. As easy as a mid 9 can be for a POS 4 banger :lolguy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Beard Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 Ha well I'll be eager to see it happen. Still non-caged or chuted to boot lol.

Zx2guy19 Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 That's fucking insane. After owning a Colt (obviously the one you built), I'd shit myself at that speed. They're like roller skates anyways...can't believe they are capable of going this fast and not launching to the moon. You're the man JP. Very cool.

Yes FWD with an open diff is a little sketchier with the torque steer. It feels more stable when its just hookin' and bookin'. But again, i could just be numb to the sketchiest after all these years. :lolguy: This. My 1G scares me about the 140+ area, ha ha. I have done balls to the wall freeway once. Not doing that again. Lulz. Im thinking my self preservation mechanism is a little off. LOL On that pass, I was STANDING on the brakes. The guys at the end of the track were frantically pointing to the last exit. I blew past them mouthing "cant stop" lol. I see why the require a parachute at 150 traps now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coltboostin Posted November 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 UPDATE- Tried it again at a local test and tune. Held it at 5k, clutch out. (still have no 2 step- no MPH in link) 1.6 60ft. 6.5 1/8th (best 8th for this car so far) Shift 4th- BOOM. Coupler blows off the MAF. 10.4 @ 101. FAK. That was my 9. Pissed next pass- give her the beans on the launch. Grenade the U joint- exploded the rear yoke- and it slipped the carrier, so the front yoke slipped out and chuck'd a piece of the T case on the way out. Literally the front and rear of the D shaft where on the ground LOL. I really need a 2 step to LIMIT my power on the leave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKilbourne Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Shit. That would have been the one most likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coltboostin Posted November 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Not sure which pass this was of yours but https://youtu.be/OofZ1oDr1wo Thanks for the vid! Shit. That would have been the one most likely. Yeah-its my bad. I had replaced it with a greasable U joint. Evidently- they are hollow in the middle and therefor weaker. In essence the failure is my fault. Live and learn! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
