Posted by 1siclx (Member # 7036) on :

Not the turnout I expected but I guess it was good for most of us that ran at least 10 times.. For those I didn't introduce myself too sorry but I met some cool people inlcuding carajo. Streakmatt.dj epik.. And 03bluemach1..

So I had some people coming up to me asking what I had done... here's my mod list

88 lx coupe

Bbk shorty headers.
Magnaflow catted x pipe
Borla xrs mufflers.
Short belt bypassing smog and power steering.
4 10 gears

Hr race springs in the front with the swaybar still connected but end links removed.

4cyl springs in the rear with umi lower control arms. The pinion angle has not been set so I don't know what tht was at.

Besides that the car is 100 percent stock with blown shocks at all four corners.. (Car quest shocks ftl)

60ft 1.991
Mph79.158
1.8th 11.400
Mph100.507
1/4th 13.660

Posted by o3BlueMach1 (Member # 6858) on :

Yes, very good races, I ran 11 times and I had a blast!
new best 1/4 time: 1.81 60' 12.70 @ 108( 8.1 1/8 @ 84)
new best 60' and 1/8 time: 1.75 60', 8.0 @ 85
the 1/8th mile run was during brackets and i noticed the other guy missed a gear so i coasted after the 1/8th, if i hadn't i would have hit a 12.6 easy, maybe even a 12.5...

Posted by EPIK (Member # 7481) on :

Just a LX, & 03blueMach1, good to meet u guys. Nice runs & times. The turnout was a bit dissapointing, but it was still a good time.

Blue03Mach1 your times were consistent as hell & 12.7 @ 108 is nothing to shake a stick @.... I cant wait to get my Mach out to the track...

Posted by streakmatt (Member # 6257) on :

Yeah the turnout was a little dissapointing, but that allowed you guys to get alot of runs in. Good meeting you Just an LX..I had fun even though I only got 1 run in compared to you guys that got 10 LOL. 1 run for $40 [Eek!]

..Oh well its my own damn fault for not getting the roll bar installed in time...I ran 10.67@135 with a shitty 1.7 60ft. 1/8th mile time was 6.9@104. I wanted to try to run again to improve the 60ft. and see what it would run but it was an emphatic NO [Big Grin]

..I was surprised by the 135MPH especially in this heat. They also told me I need an NHRA license to go 135+.

But the weather was pretty warm for my car it was gettin hot & I wanted to get a lower 60ft time wanted 1.4Xs . I manged a 1.507 60ft. 11.3 @ 123. card 347 power shiftin my pos t-5 only into 4th [Frown]

ya i talked to ya for a bit out there, i was in the black lx, man you have a sick ass car! i wanna see what it does when you get that bottle running right!

Posted by 8stang8 (Member # 8082) on :

The 347 has a NICE h/c/i pckg w/ 12 to 1 pistons. On a good day it makes less than 500 to the wheels w very little torque less than 400 @ the tire. I want to tune it w/ the bottle but scared [Frown]

something might go wrong.

Posted by LS1EATR (Member # 2702) on :

Sick notchback, and yes 2nd gear you were off the ground [Eek!]

I think my friend took pictures of your car when you were launching...I'll see [patriot]

Posted by 8stang8 (Member # 8082) on :

Not bad! What happened to 66?

Posted by phat50 (Member # 1998) on :

He said he bent a few pushrods. [Eek!]

Posted by EPIK (Member # 7481) on :

8stang8, your car is badass man & pretty nasty!!!

Carajo, everytime I see your car I drool...Its one of the cleanest 4 eyed's out there 4 sure...

BadazLX. U just need to put the quad shocks back on or get some LCA's, & lakewoods so u can get a better burnout & hook. I guarantee your times will get alot better....High 11's low 12's 4 sure....

Nice run last night Matt. U havent even raced the thing in a couple of months & u go out & run 1 pass & get your best all time MPH!!! Cant wait to see what it does with the good tune, cooler temps, & hooking a 1.5 again.... u need to hurry up & get that cage in there ASAP!!!!

Here are some crappy vids from last night. I didnt even film the whole run because my digital point & shoot couldnt even focus far enough to see the ET & MPH....

8Stang8: Clean coupe bro [patriot]

Carajo: Sick 4 eye, i like the 2 tone. You still on the stock cam?
