Yeah yeah, I kinda remembered that when the ticket lady was hanging out of the time slip booth punching my arm!....lol

We had three cars out there, an 07 GT500 that went 11.40@129, a 04 Cobra that went 11.06@127(missed 4th [Mad] ) and Shaun's 93 Cobra which went 10.4@137 with a busted tranny on his only full pass of the night,(no 2nd gear).

So yeah, we all got the boot, but it was still a blast actually going to the track! [burnout]

Did they boot you after one pass?

I plan on shooting for a 10 second slip and I like Wednesday because it is only $15. I don't want to pay $50 for a test and tune and get booted after one pass. I don't have a cage.

Yeah, they kicked us out. If you're shooting for a 10 second pass on a Wed. night race, you better have a car capable of running deep 10's at a TNT. You will be doing a whole lot of this ---> [burnout]

How about the grudge races? Is the prep any good?

I want to be able to get a 1.6x 60ft. I have done a 1.57 60ft at Infineon with my ET Street bias ply's and less power. I just ran an 11.55 with a 3.6" pulley on the S-trim (9psi) at 120.5mph with my Nittos. I actually got a 1.725 60ft, but then they spun all the way through 2nd. One of my eliminations had a 1.733 60ft and 2nd only spun a little. I was a tenth quicker at the 1000ft than my two 11.55 runs but I lifted and ran a 11.689 on my 11.66 dial at 105mph.

I have run 125.7mph with my 3.33" pulley (12psi)which should get me a high 10 with a 1.6 60ft. I may get a 2.95" pulley setup before my 10 sec attempt, which should get me around 15psi of boost and close to 130mph. I should be in the 10's with a 1.75 60ft as long as 2nd hooks up. I don't know if my fuel system can support this pulley though. It was okay with 12psi, but I think the stock rails and lines may have an issue once I pass 500rwhp. I am guessing that my 125.7mph setup is around 480rwhp.

I need a clutch first. After my two 11.55's last week it started slipping bad again. I did however make to the final and won. I dialed up to 12.86 and sand bagged my buddy after the clutch slipped bad and the other guy broke out. Then I launched super soft and granny shifted my way to a 11.91 on an 11.86 dial. I dialed to a 11.76 but the clutch slipped bad again when I tried to launch it harder and slam 2nd. I still won because the other guy red lighted!

Well, Id have to say swap that cobra intake for a "simple" holley systemax and get much better times.

I can't put a cage in it right now, so I am having a hard time as it is keeping it above 11.50. I am only running 17 degrees total timing from 4k up and I have a rich 11.5:1 AFR.

If I ever get a cage and want to go real quick, then the heads and intake will get swapped and a water-meth kit added. However, all the other drivetrain pieces will need upgrading as well! I will be lucky if my wife even lets me get the clutch that I desperately need.
