Re: stock g8 vs ppv 1/4 mile

Post by CrashTestDummy »

Stock PPV. Was it 'enhanced' in any way? That is, better tires, etc? 13.88 is not shabby.

^^^^ ok, that makes me a tad jealous... and gitty, all in one dyno pull. Seems like that car would be a good candidate for some mini tubs and a little more meat in the back. Easier said than done of course.

I finally broke tens with a mph on the compustart. Racing the red list points race tomorrow. currently 6th in points out a 122 car field. only car driven to the track in the top 75. 115 miles away

fastest mph is 128.8 and on a proper slick for the first time tomorrow should break 1.57 60ft. fingers crossed for a 10.70 and a piece of the 7K up for grabs.

I went 10.88@130.89 mph and I got a 2 thumbs up from the track owner. I put the reds and blues flashing down the track and the announcer gets the crowd going.

I did break something in the driveline ( I think the coupler) ill get it on the rack today and check. ill also get the video up in a bit
