Thanks everyone! :D

Sorry for swearing in front of your kids, Matt :coy:

The idea of hitting 10's is almost too tempting not to try.... The only thing I don't have sitting in my garage is a spare center diff.

Bah! totally my fault. I always screen before showing. But they saw me there and heard the video. I would have said the same thing if they handed me such a slip:) .

Weld the one center diff you have and don't worry about breaking it and enjoy more traction in the proccess.

You're looking at abotu 440whp if you weight is really about 3000lbs. How many of thes low 11 pass have you made? Get consistant. And see where you're at with the car. Once, you're consistant, you'll know exactly what you need to drop .2-.3 seconds.

If he welds the center diff the 3 bolt will die with a quickness. The 60 foot isn't bad so maybe work on the 1-2 shift a bit and just make passes till it happens. Also try more boost and push the tune if the car has it in it.

I think its just going to take some seat time, and it should happen.
 
That was the only pass I've made on slicks, and only pass I've made on the new setup with speed density.

The plan is to lower the tire pressure to about 12 psi, raise the stutterbox to 5k, and dial the car in for 25ish psi. Oh, and have a trailer that hopefully isn't necessary :)
 
I would keep the same tire pressure and stutterbox, raise the boost around 26psi an click off a 10 second pass with out breaking the 3 bolt. In your case I feel like that's all youl need to do it. awesome times GL next time your at the track
 
Yea bring the trailer. That 3-bolt is screaming HELP with those slicks. LOL. Great run though.
 
E85 and Jackal FTW :D

Very nice run on a 16g man! That vid was awesome too. I said the same thing when I saw my slip and I only ran a 12.0@118 on the 16g, I would have shit my pants if I were you LOL.
 
Would be fun but running the car that hard and that far away without a trailer scares me a bit. Maybe go to the local track once more to see what it has left in it. The 68HTA's would tear me up anyway :p

Getting everything ready to fabricate stuff for the hx35; I'd feel a lot better aiming for 10's on a street tire. I will keep the 16g/14b stuff so I can swap back if I want to take another crack at it when I get a 4 bolt etc.
 
Awesome, That might be some type of record for WI. There was a guy out in Utah that held the record for a similar time with a 16g. KUDOS! Very impressive.

Burgundy is referring to a neon guy that was negotiating for a track run with me last week. Apparently his friends think the average bolt on 16g car runs 10's ROFL I guess it's a compliment that people think all 16g cars are 10 second cars(this was before I made that pass, I even laughed at the thought of running low 11's :tease:).
 
The 68HTA's would tear me up anyway :p

Congrats on the killer pass! Your car must be making some really nice power with that weight/ET/MPH.

Don't sell yourself short! I'm sure 11.2 will hold up pretty well in that class!

I'm eager to throw my E3 16g on after seeing how well they run, but, not yet. Trap speeds in the 120's is nice....

My vote is you go for 10's, forget a bigger turbo, get a 4 bolt, that will give you the confidence you need to extract all your car has to offer you.....
 
what kind of timing are you running in load rows 11 and 12? seems awfully fast for only 20-22lbs. I would love a trans that I could shift quickly. :( what do you have done as far as weight reduction? Im right at 3278 with me in it. car alone 3100 lbs, half tank, CAT certified. also what kind of intake is that? it looks very nice.
