Default Time for a cage

Went to NPR last night just to make a few runs since i havent been in a few months. Was an awesome night for me and i couldnt be happier.

60ft- 1.67
1/8- 7.40
mph- 95.90
1/4- 11.48
mph- 121.19

I was going to put a cage in a while back but decided running 11.60's was good enough, i really didnt expect to run what i did especially on the first pass of the night. I guess ill go ahead and do a 6 point cage now since i was planning on adding a few things in the near future.

The vid will be posted later tonight probably.

Nice times! Great 60', you can tell it's really hooking up. What suspension work and what slicks?

Yeah man those things work haha. I guess im gonna take some weight out the car now, install the cage, upgrade the intercooler/hotside piping and put a 3 inch dp on it. Should make about 450whp on 20psi and shoot for some 10's on the 22's! Hopefully anyway.

Yeah it should be trapping 124-125 with the 1/8 mile trap speed, thats where the intercooler comes into play. Apparently the drag one i was running was far too small for my setup.

my t type was mid 80's in the 1/8th with a trap of 115 at 11.80. but that was a heavy *** car with a little te-32e (slightly larger than a t3. t3's were stock on the turbo t's)
