After making some changes to the car in the past week, I finally got the 8.6 pass that I have been looking for. I went to the track this past Saturday (10-22) and ran a personal best of 8.62 @ 168 mph, and then backed it up with a 8.70 @ 170 mph. I know that makes the Red Demon the Quickest AWD 2G, but I believe the 170 mph trap speed also makes it the fastest.
All year I've been running a Evo 3 final drive, which has a ratio of 3.909. With this gear ratio I was reeving the car to almost 9900 to go through the traps in 4th gear. I decided to try out the stock DSM gear ratio which is 3.545, to try and bring my revs down in 4th gear. Using the DSM final of 3.545 I only rev the car to around 9K and have trapped in the 170's. It just feels a lot easier on the car. First gear also feels a lot smother now that it is a little longer. I also changed from E98 back to E85. I mixed the E98 with 100 oct unleaded to give me a E85ish blend, I did this because I was running out of fuel above 41-42 psi on E98. The 8.62 pass and the 170 mph trap speed was seen at 44 psi on the FP3794. I may bring the car out one last time before the year is up. I'll keep you guys posted.
For next year I plan on:
-Installing a 3000gt rear end
-Make a tubular front core support and crossmember
-Custom dash/gauges
-Add to the chromoly cage
