NO nine's BUT gaining ground until ....

[no-nos]

Very Nice

wow!! looks like you have a well tune'd mechine there that 67 turbo is awesome great time !! i guess i'm going to have an even bigger problem when i go to the track. i have no cage and i have no intention of installing one:redface: , i too would like to make a couple of passes in the nine's and then slow her down.

whats the difference between a 10 sec cage and a 9 sec cage? again great time slip, it looks so simple but it's so deadly

being able to still drive the car as if it was a car. A 9 second cage then you might as well be houdini to get in and out of it :frown:

I am thinkin about the 9 sec cage an trying to keep it really tight to the dash and roof .. ya its a driver .. she raced Friday night then drove 2 hours to the lake .. cruised around all weekend and got home here Tuesday .. then we were racing Wednesday its a driver believe me

Cool, sounds like a full weight/interior car to me... Gotta love a car like this that still has A/C, an overdrive trans, and the rest of the creature comforts that you could cruise to the track, knock off some low 10's high 9's, and drive home.. What more could one ask for??! Melissa's car optimizes to me what is so cool about these cars:smile:

 

[V6POWER]

What afr/timing?

 

[Grumpy]

it was 73/74* .. seemed a lot hotter

 

[Grumpy]

as far as the "tune" .... we tune for no knock thats it ... have to leave you guys some work to do by yourselves :biggrin: oh.. Turbotweak Chip

 

[turbo nasty]

Congrats on the times and you will get there

What size and type of tiire you/she running?

 

[Grumpy]

MT drag radials ... 275/60/15s ... and we are now trying the 325's

 

[bison]

Thats a big increase in mph there. Car is flying now. A 1.51 60' and the same mph should do it. Must be spraying a lot of methanol in there with the single pump still holding strong:biggrin: .

 

[Grumpy]

cooler weather it "should" go faster and quicker but the reality of the shoulda, coulda, woulda doesn't mean crap let the car do the squawking :biggrin:

 

[Turbo1dr]
