Re: Another Just Got Back from the Track Thread
My old Monte Carlo SS clone with a tired 355/and a stock rear, ran in the low 11's. :8 you would have dusted me for sure :6 .................
Then I rebuilt the fucker and ran a 9.6@76 |
Re: Another Just Got Back from the Track Thread
lol, thanks
and i don't feel bad, i expected to get toasted by most everyone. i still had a ton of fun and will definatley be back there some more over the summer. i even beat 2 cars out of like 8 runs. the first was a jaguar v12 driven by a guy with one leg. pretty sure it was an automatic. i was trying to figure out what rpm was best to launch and bogged commin out of the hole. i ran a 11.0 he ran a 11.1 lol. i thought it was funny since he had 3x the cylinders. The second car i beat was a 10.5 mustang. he was about at half track and his hood comes unpinned or something and flops up over his windshield. he let off with like a 1.5 second advantage at 330' and i got he win ;D. |

Re: Another Just Got Back from the Track Thread
pretty sure, i remember lookin over at him when i was runnin out 2nd cause he was a half car ahead and he had both hands on the wheel. he got me out of the launch cause i bogged and he had rwd i supose.
what does everyone else launch their rides at? i found i did the best at about 5k and just dump the cluch, no feathering. i really need to get chipped and use a full throttle launch program. |
