New best in my Car

[Stoner]

I dont post here a lot anymore but I still lurk...

Put a Tilton Carbon/Carbon in the car right before the shootout to help with all my breakage as well as Curts tcase, thanks Curt! Didnt have much luck at the SO due to too much partying HA!

Went to IFO Event in Columbus, OH yesterday and after sorting a few tuning issues out and learning how to launch the car with the Tilton and off the staging brake I got this best pass in qualifying.

60.......1.56
330.....4.331
1/8......6.52
mph....109.51
1000...8.38
1/4.....9.92
MPH...147.46

Went rounds and made it to the finals but had to race a high 7 sec Supra. Tried to tree him and bogged the launch but ran it out anyway. I had much better shifts on this pass and the car went 151mph. I just need to wind 1st out more which I did on that pass. The car has much more in it but I finally got that damn monkey off my back

Big thanks to John Shepherd for all his help with my car, I know I have been a pain but as always YOU DA MAN! Fathouse Fabrications for all the work on the car and my sweet Manifold

Congrats on successful weekend. Trapping mph's in the 150 range is absolutely sick. Nice work!

Um No it is my race car, I drive a Toyota Camry everyday HAHA

Thanks Gravedigger

Nice pass, Ben.

What clutch were you running prior to the carbon/carbon?

 

[Stoner]

Thanks Paul, Standard QM twin with the PTT tapered TOB.

So far the you get what you pay for motto is right in line

LORD JESUS.. i jus cant imagine the "sinking nuts" feeling at launch .. congrats!

 

[Stoner]

I dont feel anything until after the pass HA!

Doing a 2nd or 3rd gear pull on the street is a little different tho
