Ever notice it may be months before you get street kills especially if you have a beater car?


Coming out of Hagerstown MD had an 00-02 Dmax with exhaust mess with me. I BARELY HUNG with him on a roll 30 mph roll. YIKES. Have raced high 12 sec LBZ,LMM before and this truck was tougher. Hats off to you. Looked stock with just a pipe and was dirty.

On the way up to Cecil County drag way ran into a C6 Z06. Guy wanted to play but too much traffic. Like I had a shot anyway???


At the track ran two times with overinflated DRs(wanted to save the rear). First race was against a big block Chevelle wagon. I got destroyed(12.3 at 109 1.7 60 ft vs 11.2 at 122 MPH). Next race was against a GN with huge slicks. Actually out 60 ft him(2.1 vs 1.70) but got killed again(12.3 at 110 vs 11.9 at 108-he let out I believe).

On the way home got into it with a white 97 LT1. Only mods I could see was Borla catback. Sounded clean and was spotless. On a 40MPH roll I got him by about 3 cars to 110 MPH. Didn't want to play again.

Next victim was a loud 06-07 Dmax Dually blowing smoke everywhere. That was pretty ugly. Pulled him as soon as he started to spool.


This must be the first kills I have posted here in about 6 years....

Thanks for reading

 

Busy Day ! LOL

 

Good times.

 

Ahh... just like the old days. How I've missed the Mike92 LX kill stories. I see your still picking on those lowly LT1's Next time your creeping around in the Fredneck area hit me up. Jimmie Cone in Mt Airy is this weekend and I still have the Trans Am

 

Thanks everyone.

If I don't hit the beach I will do so. I was up in MT Airy last weekend. Do a lot of racing there...

 

It took you 6 years to build that turd?

 

No two weeks L98pig!

Glen I hit 75/80 Friday but no time that weekend. Ran 12.4 at 108 as best...

 

No worries dude. Looks like your car runs well. I have not been to 75/80 since it has reopened.

 

Thank you!

Got a real SS hood and will swap to a carbon fiber ds and LS6 intake. Maybe next Friday Ill go back and see if I can run 12.1s-if so Ill pm you

 

Nice times on a bolt-on car. The LS6 intake will give you a MPH or 2 for sure along with a couple tenths if you keep pulling those wicked 1.70 60's on a bolt-on motor.

 

Thanks. I can't decide to whether to use it or buy a a friend's modded TPIS LS6 with the 90MM opening. Not sure if that will work well with some done up LS6 heads or a Fast would be better. Fast or the TPIS would be over kill I think now.
Sixtys are easy with these tires. Powerbrake to 1100 and flash the converter. Even at a crap track like 75/80. Keep in mind this car is light(b4c) and I run the stock 16" rims which help keep the weight down

 

You'll definately see more power w/ a ported fast 90/92 & tb over the ls6 & ported stocker.Some guys have seen an additional 20. If you plan on doing heads I would definately go the Fast route.

 

Depends on the price and how much power you are trying to make. A Fast 90/90 combo is $1000+. The FAST typically makes around 15-20rwhp over the LS6 with a healthy heads/cam motor, but once again it depends on how much cam you're trying to stick in it, etc.

 

haha im not gonna lie but D maxs are beast and they definatley are fast for a truck and you do simple mods and those trucks will fly down the road killing most cars lol

 

Mike: Another old timer here. I hadn't been to the board in a while, but checked in today, saw this post and wanted to say hello. I hope that all is well with you.
