well went to the Toronto F body event, excellent job by the folks from toronto for setting it up!

made it to the 3rd round before breaking out, even though i lifted just before the traps, doh! that might have been my 11.2x run but oh well, lol!

it was difficult getting out of the hole hard, unfortunately there were a couple of bald spots there at the launching pad! probably from the street tired cars. lets just say every run i was spinning hard! i didi also muster a new 60' p.b. with little tires of a 1.56.

i actually ran my 16x26x11.5" et streets, spent the first part of the day dialing in the suspension. but then elims started and i had to wait till later before I could do any more adjusting. got one more run in at the end of the day which actually was a 11.32, and surprisingly i yanked the front wheels of the ground, not much, but about an inch or two. with the little et streets on i think that is some what an accomplishment, lmao!!!!!

there is more room to improve on the suspension for the small et streets, i just ran out fo time to do any more adjusting to the suspension, i had a blast made 9 passes, put her on the trailer and called it a day! thanks to Rob for crew chiefing, and da wife for filming! and Dave for the translator, that made a huge difference for me.

i think i need to borrow a set of 15x26x15 et streets to see what she will do!

 

Awesome man! With a killer 60' like 1.3x you could even see 10's on motor! Congrats man!

 

Way to go Taner, 10's are a ways off but there is definately light at the end of the tunnel. Stick with it you will get there.

thanks guys! i really thought i had a better shot at it than the results yesterday. i guess if i could've mustered a mid 1.4x 60' then a high eleven teen might have been possible. no biggie, look forward to some cooler weather and a sticker launch pad.


besides i like the bottle better

 

Buddy,

The Bottle Rocks!!!!!

 

Nice job Taner. At this point it's just a waiting game for the fall weather. Then that 10 may just pop up.

 

Nice taner! What is your raceweight and HP/TQ NA if you dont mind me asking.

 

raceweight on saturday was about 3520. rwhp 440/418 at the beginning of the year.... not sure if it is still there, lol! but in that ballpark.

 

congrats on the new run there, wish i could of joined you guys

 

that is ok steve, the track wasn't hooking that great, i spun the tires all the way through first, a good portion of second, part of third and even laid a patch grabbing 4th! lmao!!!! this was on all runs!!ha ha!

oh well bring on windsor weekend

 

yeah, i can't wait, still have some work to do before then, hopefully everything comes in

just remember to take is easy on us in quick 16

 

Im never going to catch to My goal has been to beat you this year on horsepower. Nice run

 

Tanner,
That is down right nucking futs dude...Congrats!

threadedtire,

thanks, i can't believe that my car is someone else's goal, lol!!!! i still think there is a better time in her yet, i just need traction or 26" drags mounted on 15" wheels. that would make the difference for me.

i hope to run her on motor one more time this year!

 

Are you looking to sell your car, seriously
