A timing glitch caused us to turn a 1.3 60' on our 11.3 @ 118 pass, We will be back at the track very soon with more times for you guys!

That's some crazy 60'. Very impressive!

I took this picture of your car yesterday after one on your runs.

Yeah that 60ft is insane. 11.3 for a 16g is awesome. Man that is almost 10 sec Congrats keep up the good work

It was also good to see killa break the 10s with his cyclone intake colt yesterday gives the cyclone manifold props. 10.82@ 133

How well was it building boost at the line? If you are pulling 1.3 60' times on a stock converter... holy shit.

Congrats man, those are some serious times.

Nothing but props to you!

That is sweet, how much does the car weigh?

Glad to see you got the car up and going! Sorry I did not get back to you on the SD tune, but I would've been of little help. The new auto seems to be working out for you.

wookie this is 97spyda on sedsm were you at the shootout yester day? killa colt pulled 10 sec in the colt and jason made it to the 2nd round in the srt4 just to update you.
Gastroker broke an axle but his car was a beast

Thanks Guys..
Car weighed 3092 lbs with me in it..
It ran awesome on Friday Nights test and tune. the 11.3- 1.3- 60 felt good for the little 16g.. Saturday it felt real lathargic every pass but consistant.. Took it off the trailer this morning and did a BLT ....I had a Chinese blow off valve on it for fitment issues and it had blown the sealing "o" ring right out of it... When it happened --I dont know...The win at The Import Showdown Saturday was nice, we just outlasted the other cars (Faster)..They Broke...we won.

Congrats! a 1.3 anything on a street tires seems nearly impossibly especially a 1.31. Not trying to bash on your car or anything because those are impressive times for a 16g car but did you back that 60' up with another 1.3?

Dang, that 60' is crazy. A local guy ran a 11.555 in a full weight 2g, with one of our EF1 turbos. Track prep was apparently crappy, if only he had your 60' haha.

Very impressive ET!! What was your 60' on the other runs?

We never were able to back up that time...The BOV o-ring must of blew out on the 11.3 run...Didnt find it till we got back home.

Special thanks going out to Scotts Machine Shop in Fayetteville Ga.

What were the other times and 60's like? What is/was your next best 60'. Car looks great and runs strong, but a 1.3 on street tires isn't likely, especially in a heavy car, with heavy wheels, etc. There are all kinds of reports of timing erros. But, the car did seem to leave very smoothly in the video, I would assume track prep was excellent for the event, and it is an auto. So I won't leave it out of the realm of possibilities, even if physics generally say it's impossible. Either way great car, great run!

Timing error..?I.. dont know ...I just did the run and they handed me the slip..I cut several 1.8's Saturday at the event with a leaking BOV ... It was slow to build boost Saturday compared to Friday night..

Vince I was there, you posted the time slip what moore do you need to show that the car pull that time. I looked a BStar time slip in his profile and he pull a 1.4 60ft 11.5 ET @ 116 mph to me your whole stats are on par with the 1.3 60ft 11.3ET@ 118mph I am confused why the question.

I was on qtp's, and it was a 1.57 60'?

I'm not trying to be a douche here. But, 1.3 60's don't equate with street tires. We've seen .9 60's from a car running 10's should we believe those were legit too, that was a timing error? Listen I'm more then happy to be proved wrong, and I'm not trying to knock you at all, I believe the 11.3 is accurate, the only thing I'm questioning is the 60'. Mr. Peepers ran a 1.57 60' with an auto, on a car running 10's, and questioned if it was a timing error himself because he was on street tires. But, you know what, forget I typed anything. No matter how many props I give you for a great running car that went very quick I'll be that guy who questioned the 60' right? But, the coefficient of grip isn't there on street tires to cut a 1.3 60' all I'm saying. Go do it again and prove me wrong, I like being wrong actually.

Well man I just got to say I am proud of both of you guys being 1/2 second from getting into the 10s with your near stock setups. I am not saying you are bashing nor do I think vince want to prove you wrong. I do know this the man put a lot of hard work into his car and was very excited when he pull that 1.3 on his first run and thought that he would share it with fellow dsmer's on the tuners if you don't believe it that fine but let the man have his moment in the light because I am still looking for my moment

Yeah.....I'd have to say there's about a 3 tenth discrepancy here. Considering the quickest DSM AWD 60' on the list is 1.24, the car in the pictures with those wheels and tires could not hit a 1.31. I'm at 1.48 on full slicks with 337 ft.-lbs. of torque in a 2460 lb. total weight car. While I think 1.3xs are possible, I'd say next to impossible on a standard street tire.

Well vince look like you are in for a long day with this thread i guess you need to fix that boost leak and go back and do it several more times

Lol-- all the haters!

It could have been a timing fluke-- but either way it was a great run!

Congrats on the showdown win and new best ET the night before!

Glad to see my old car is in good hands!

I don't understand these reactions at all.

11.3 @ 118 is moving, no doubt about it and congrats on that with a small turbo.

But a 1.3 60' is getting out of the hole faster than any street tire I've EVER heard, seen or read about. By almost a quarter second.

It's a reasonable skepticism and these sorts of questions are how we as a community learn. Grow up, these are not coming from "haterz"

That is such a childish "Jersey Shore-esque" mindset. Deflecting anything remotely different than knob-slobbing is not helping anyone and makes you come off a bit douche-y.

Questioning information is what intelligent adults should do and getting butt hurt about it is just silly.

1.3x sec 60' does not tend to coincide with a 7.0x 1/8th or 11.3 1/4, unless its a bias-ply tired car that is not tech legal trying to get some practice hits in before they have all their safety equipment.

Learning is questioning the lack of proof hating is questioning the proof. nobody asked what type of tires , who did your transmissin ,enlighten us on your setup these are questions a person who wants to learn ask . Haters ask no I don't believe you not with street tires do it again . Time slip is enough proof for me. I guess that will always be haters regardless.

^thanks! Yeah, not hating, calling it out based on experience and having been around the dsm drag scene for 16 years. Nate C. 's auto lighter weight 14b car went 11.37@116 with a 1.46 short time. Not saying the car in the thread here can't run 11.3, for sure it can. Also, the 7.0 doesn't coincide with an 11.3 ET. Generally 7.0 nets 10.9-11.0.

That's your definition. There have been botched timeslips in the past, ESPECIALLY in the fall. I've had leaves break beams before and clock time incorrectly. It happens. It's been stated that there was only one run this quick. That's a pretty good tell-tale that something went awry...pretty much common sense in drag racing.
