wow thats insane, i cant wait to see the video b/c thats pretty much exactly what i plan to have done to my car by the end of the summer, except with nittos and i have 3.73s, torque arm, full sfcs, lower control arms etc... i will b happy pullin a 1.7 60ft, but 1.5 is unbelievable

 

here is time slip



video will be up shortly

the 1.55 60 ft run is messed up...but the others are there...that was the only one where he pulled a tire...if you don't believe us...oh well...i saw it with my own two eyes...i'll post the video in little bit!

Nice vid. Also, very nice times for the mods. you have. What did the EVO run?

 

I didn't see any wheels come off the ground.

 

i have watched your video,car looks quite potent!great 60' great et however i did not see the wheel(s)leave the contact patch but nun the less your car loves the dope!spray on playa lookin good

 

yeah, the first run of the night was teh one where the wall was in the way, i forgot they were filming

second run was teh one from the front-ish of hte car where we soomed in, not as good of 60' but it was still a decent launch 1.6

third run was the "rear view" of the car, i spun the right side a lil bit, and only pulled off a 1.7 60' on that run.

by watching the action of the car in each of hte videos, you can def. tell the body lifted a LOT more in the run where the wall was in the way (1.5 60')

either way, a 2.73 car pulling a 1.5 60' is incredible to me.

 

hmm...well the E55 AMG ran a 11.8 and we beat him by about 3 car lengths

that was short shifting first gear b/c the track was cold (1.67 60ft) and no spray

 

I didn't see any wheels come off the ground. It lifted, but all 4 where still on the ground.

 

Nice runs, but I didn't see any wheels leaving the ground. You do realize that your tranny will be going out pretty soon? It slips pretty bad between shifts.

 

yeah, i know its shady.

the place that rebuilt it killed the line pressure mechanically, i raised it in the computer, but still. i think a shift kit will greatly improve things. the trans only has about 20K on it. might get a new 2-4 band put in when i get my stall put in this summer.

working out the details of my plan, until then, i'll just have some fun with it.

 

Are you shure it has 2.73 in it? it comes out of the hole really quick. And only with 120 shot. And all 4 wheels stayed on the pavment. It would take about 600+ tq do pull that kind of 60' with 2.73.

 

on the run that pulled the wheels (not in the video b/c footage was lost) I, me, myself was standing in between the two lanes where it says "carolina dragway" and saw with my own two eyes the front left tire come 2-3 inches off the ground...

i know we don't have video proof...but why would we ly? it's not like we are winning a prize or something...it DID happen though

 

it takes less than that to achieve that type of 60'.

to lift a factory size wheel 2-3 inches does take quite a bit,if you had skinnies on there it would be more believable.
Roman Littman 10.47@131.9,1.41 60', 3''off the ground w/BMR susp. and slicks and 6spd
Jason Warren 9.58@140,1.28 60' 3-4" off the ground w/BMR susp. et streets auto trans.
its not like i think anyone is not telling the truth here it just takes more than what was said to achieve a factory wheel to be 2-3" off the pad,seeing full susp. at launch will make you think you pulled the wheels that far,i am not saying it did not occur however i will say i dont think it was that high....gooood times though and a tough 60'!

 

maybe i was alittle exicted

but i def saw light under that front left tire....i wasn't seeing things
