The point being you can't just through a bunch of parts together and expect 1.20. 60'. There is a lot more work, time and effort into it then some people are giving credit for,


Quality parts stay together. All the behind the scenes tuning and tweaking and dial in is the true hard work of getting any vehicle to go fast. more importantly go fast multiple times. C-Dub, Buschur, Brown, English. These guys have a lot of seat time fine tuning their race cars. Keep it up guys. Congrats to the C-Dub team on all the accomplishments in 2011!!
 
Did you get any testing on the new 8" converter from sinister speed before breaking the tcase?

I can't believe this is being discussed. I apologize to you, realize there are people who understand how much crazy amount of time and blood are into these cars.
 
The mere thought of a low 1.2 60' on an AWD drivetrain is insane, but watching that video really puts it into perspective!

Extremely impressed, as always :thumb:
 
Wow I shit myself at the round 3 race. Those cars are scary fast.
 
I'm gonna give some credit here to Jesse, We were talking with you about launch control and whatnot at the Shoot Out, I was dealing with buck wild launches that was gonna kill my drive train, Jesse gave me a hint on how they have their launch control set, I know this don't make sense but it worked for me, Less is More!!!! Even though I was cutting consistent low 1.3's it wasn't good enough, I turned my car down 1000 rpm at the launch and raped the boost in the second I let off the brake, BAM 1.2x's every pass and the car is smooth as butter. With the small changes I'm making right now I foresee my car hitting 5.0-5.1"s in the 1/8th this next coming season.

I can't take any credit on brads car, I just don't like people pushing it off that's it just as easy as slapping a 4 link in a car :thumb:
 
I give all you guys props for setting the pace. Auto was one of the best things I ever did. I miss it bad since my cars been apart since march. Car works amazing.
 
what coilovers are you guys using? qa1 strange or dsm style coilovers. beautiful car and setup keep up the good work

Kiggly has been preaching that same thing for years, ironically the first one hitting those 1.3/2s albeit in a FWD car to boot LOL.
 
First of all, I just wanted to let you guys know that you guys know that these cars are ridiculous with the short and 1/8 times they are running. You could damn near beat any street-legal door slammers azz down here running those types of time consistently.

Second, I'm looking into purchasing a 2g auto locally very soon. I wanted to know if you guys have done the 8.8 swap on a 2g yet, and what type of success have you had with it? If everything is good to go, I'll definitely be looking forward to bringing the chassis up there to get it setup.
