THE RECORD HAS BEEN WRITTEN!!!!! A 109 in the 8S!!!!!

[GNBRETT]

Yea that launch was not very good and it stilled hauled ass. I hope the next video is taken from the side vs. behind. Just can't get much of an idea how fast that thing must have been traveling from behind. Would be nice see it up against another car and make an 8 sec pass.

Maybe the next accomplishment for the 109 would be to run 160 mph.

What I got to do to get some of those "X" parts Paul?

Nothing crazy, just run 8's with a stock block or something like that :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

If all goes well this spring & we get the new shop up & running as planned, might just have a new line on super pro rear suspension parts for the REAL fast guys by the Nat's. Got LOT's of dreams & ideas, but only so much time & money to get er done, borrowed all I can for now!

I just reviewed the data log. They were lower than I told some people earlier today.

4950 rpm launch
6850 on the 1-2
6850 on the 2-3
7650 through the traps

FWIW: The O2 correction averaged 0.2% in 3rd and the EGT's were 1645-1680
The car was overgeared and started to go flat out the back. I would've loved to have a 29" tire.

Thats one hell of an efficient converter you got there. You were probably around 160mph as you crossed the line. More tire and a 1.30 60', i pedict low 8.60's.

You get what you pay for in SOME cases

Dick, let me know if I can help you get those 60's down in the 1.2's, so you can go for the 8.5 milestone too! Cal might have some "extra" HRparts "experimental" pieces to loan you, or some off Dave's car

I spoke with Dave and Dick yesterday. You better set some time aside this spring. Give me a call when you get a chance.

Cal,

Dick is running one of my IC-475 intercoolers, did you happen to log the inlet temps on the record run?

 

[HighPSI]

His inlet temperature through the traps was 118. This was at 30- 30.5 psi on a 60+ degree day. The intercooler was definitly doing its job. Nice piece!

 

[SPOT MY 6]

Cal, what kind of fuel are you guys using? VP Import?

?
