Taner, NICE times man....i was beginning to wonder if anyone was ever going to raise the 6spd bar again.

Nice job again!
Jason

 

Wow!!! that's all I can say! Great times and great driving. I think you might have the best 60 ft stock style suspension. BTW how much were you spraying on that run and how were you launching the car.
Congrats
Matt

 

thanks guys! that is a pretty "stiff" 60', the BMR parts really make the car hook! i still can't get over it, a 1.27 60'

St.Thomas dragway did a good job of keeping the track prepped.

It was a fat 300 shot on top of what the motor puts out, so an easy 740 rwhp all at 5000rpm, what a rush!

Jason,

it was just a matter of time before it happened, i knew the car had the potential.if it wasn't me then i am sure it would've been someone else. it was all a waiting game. the weather broke, racing season is back and the car is ready!

 

Awesome times Taner.

Just curious, what did you change from your 10.14 from last year to your 9.68? I remember something about you possibly freshening the motor and a camshaft change. Did you change the cam? Was that on a full slick or an ET Street?

What is your fuel system for the nitrous? A single 8an (or is it 6an) line from the factory tank and a Holley Blue or Black?

Sorry for all the questions, just very interested in your combo as I have a very similiar setup (besides not having my nitrous install completed). My 392 has ran 120mph with a very fat tune and not enough gear so I am hoping to get that mph up to 125 or so and then hit it with 200 and working my way up to 300.

Again great times.

Dave

 

thanks dave,

last year i had 13/16 good lifters! doh! also yes new cam, secret grind
in race mode the car is 250 #'s lighter than last year, i finally threw on hal shocks as well. in street mode it is 200 #'s lighter.

black pump, sorta sumped from tank, it is a 8an line...i believe. full lsick all the way, i wnat to see what the car can run without any excuses

 

What setting did you finally go with on your hals? What was your race weight on that run?...I still can't believe it..that's gonna be a hard record to top.
Matt

 

race weight is about 3425ish

settings on hals, i have to go check, i know i had the fronts turned WAY up, and the rear i actually staggered, but still fairly high. i am also running airbags in the rear, a drag bar is in order at this point.
i realize there is a bit of room for improvement especially in getting the car to go straight. i think i have a baseline now!

 

Congrats Taner! Kickass stuff man. This stuff just gets me AMPED to get my car done. Oh so close at this point

*Trying to call body shop to tell them to hurry the hell up..... Damn no answer LOL*

Enjoy it man, you've earned it!

Kurtis

 

Kurtis,

thanks a bunch, it has been a couple of years in the making as my friend put it! the stuff just doesn't happen overnight!

you still got that fastest list?????? lmao!!!

am i still on it? or will this put me back up there?
i would like to see where i stand next to all of those automatic guys

 

i think it sounds like the dream i just had about my car last night.. Great times and that 60ft its.. What's helping me stay on the 6speed side rather than going over the stab and steer club.. Again.. Congrats.. Any vids of the run?

 

i have video's but i need someone to host it for me! i am sure brett at BMR will host it for me once he is back at his shop on monday. i will post as soon as he has it up on his site.

 

Absolutely impressive! I can't wait to see the video.

 

i would send it but it is a large file! doh!

 

Awesome! Sounds like one HELL of a ride!

 

great run man ecspecially for a 6speed ...thanks, for the props on my thread as well..twas a good weekend indeed..
