hehe ya sounded like granny shifting on the 1st run man.

What's the 60ft? dood not bad for a T3T04B man.

oops jus saw the end of the vid. ya your 60s arent bad. You just need a little bit more power to get into the 10s.

 

actually, this is my new 62-1 turbo, old sig
my first pass had boostcut and was shuttin down at 7000k rpm

 

I think you got a .10th in faster shifting alone, 129mph should get you into the 10's..... how much does the car weight?

 

last time i weighed it, 2200 without driver, and im a big guy, so heavy with me in it

 

a little bit more seat time and you'll be there

 

Yeh man good runs but from what I see and hear in the vid you need to shift a tad quicker. If you add the time lost between the slow shifts I gurantee you will see 10s. At least a 10.99. The trap is dead on. Keep at it.

 

Car looks uber cool all black.

 

yeah man i agree with ben.

520whp with a t3t67ho and a 2600lb car with me in it, got me a 10.96 @129 with a best of 10.72 @131

shift that car faster, and make sure you are shifting high enough to not fall out of boost on the gear canges.

 

how much power ?and shift tha car faster !!!

 

not sure on power, im guessing close to 400whp
tranny gives me trouble in 3rd when shifting fast, another tranny going in soon with lsd

 

I couldn't believe the temp at the track was 37degrees yesterday and it was 60'ing better than ever (all where 1.650-1.68), but it was first time using third gear burnouts also.

 

it'll happen sooner or later lol leave you foot on the gas!!

 

fts ftmfw

 

man we seem to be on the same quest lol

last friday I went 11.02@134 with a 1.79 60 lol ide kill for a 1.6 60 man.

my short track has been shitty all summer long, and I added a bigger battery wich seemed to increase my MPH quite a bit.

good luck man I just wanted 10's on a stock motor

 

You shouldn't have any problem getting into the tens with a good launch

 

i was stuck at 11.0 and 133-135 mph all season so i feel your pain, it took fresh slicks and a extra pound or so of boost to get me a 10.7 at 138. my car is also pretty heavy so i know what your up against.

 

Hey Ben no doubt you'll get into the 10s but just drive like it ain't your car. Power shift baby....all the way down track. Hahaha. Hope to see you guys next year.

 

Just from personal experience that 1-2 shift can really pick your times up. On my car the first day I had it back at the track on the new setup with a little more power, my car wanted to bog when I hit 2nd gear no matter how I shifted. I messed with my boost levels a little and got it to hit 2nd pretty hard and it picked up over a 1/10th on my ET and I gained like 2mph.....then the rain came and I have not been back.

Personally, I think if you could hit 2nd harder and get your 330' down just a hair it would possibly be that 10 sec pass.............

 

damn man soo close...I'm right there with ya...been stuck @ 11.0 @ 129 on my little t3 60-1. Im now on more boost, still tryin to dial it in. Hoping to see 135mph or better. That time was low 1.7 60 too. if i could 1.5 or low 1.6 tens all day man!!! You'll get there just like I hope too....SOOO CLOOSEEEE!!!

 

thanks for all the support, gonna go back and set up the no lift shift to see how that goes

teambrooklyn: cant wait for Brainerd again, were bringing more people and cars hopefully, that was my favorite event this year

 

reading this made me realized that I should be in the 10's also, keep missing/searching for 3rd. and trapping sometimes 200kph, on bad launches. hopefully next season I will be in the 10's germany tracks High altitude, full interior with 230lbs driver.

 

Dude I see you updated your et!! Congrats man. Just got back from rockfalls today and backed up the 10sec run with 2-10.8@131 w/1.7 60 ft. The track was still slippery with the cold. Hahaha see you next year. Hope to have a different turbo setup and go low 10s next year. Welcome to the club bro!!!
