Excellent day for racing! Not a lot of cars and perfect, cool weather. Once again I was surprised by the performance of my 103kmi. 5.0.

Run 1 (no changes from last week)
All shifts at 5500
14.5 psi, 4.5k launch, iced intake
60ft.- 1.997 some spin
ET- 13.638 @ 100.725

Run 2
13.5psi, same launch, power shifted 3-4!
60ft.- 1.981 slight bog
ET- 13.599 @ 101.194 Yeah, Baby!

Run 3
13psi, iced for an hour (sat in lanes), 5mph tail wind, 4.5k Launch
60ft.- 1.938 slight spin
ET- 13.509 @ 102.026!!! Holy Flyin' Bat Crap, Batman!!!

Run 4
stepped on brake in first 60 feet, don't ask me why. power shift 3-4.
60ft.- 2.183
ET- 13.876 @ 100.521

Run 5
13.5psi, 4.5k launch
60ft.- 1.938 deja vu, slight bog
ET 13.667 @ 100.14

Run 6- Take No Prisoners!
13psi, 4.7k Launch
60ft.- 1.914 some spin
ET- 13.500! @ 100.896 YEEESSS!!!

even power shifted a little early 3-4 (5.2k) I was so stoked by the 60 ft and clean shifts.

Mods in sig. Still stock- fan+clutch, exhaust from cat pipe- back! DO I hear a 13.4X w/ current combo? I think I do...

Woooooo Hooooo!

Jim L.

ps- saw lots of other excellent runs from fellow Stangers- maybe they wil post their new best ET's!

Congradulations Jim! I never did get to see what your last run was like. I also improved on my best n/a time today.
New best 13.366 @ 101.023!
This was with the same mods as last week.
Oh BTW, for the people who cared to accuse me of using my N20 last week when I ran a 13.575. This week I got my bottle filled and hooked the N20 back up to the motor so you could see what a nitrous pass looks like.
New Nitrous best-12.3 @ 109
Thanks for the encouragement.

Don't forget about the slicks you were using! They had a big part in putting all that N2O to the ground!

he's alright , he ran a few 13.7s so that 13.68 is no fluke.. w/ et streets he should be at 13.40s(low 1.8s?) no problem...im working with him and he wants to run 12.9s N/A.. shouldnt be a prob...

13.5's and 102 MPH with no new mods? Thats awesome! What RPM are you shifting at? What did your 1/8th mile MPH look like? You're tempting me to come back out of 'retirement' with every track visit Jim! 13.4's with better driving/launch (4.10's?)... 13.2's with an off road H pipe... 13.1's with ram air.... and 12.999's are just hiding in the 60 ft!

12.999?!!! You are the optimist! We need to do some side by side runs and we will both improve. I need to get a better set of tires- these are not very consistent. I am also spinning the right tire occasionally so maybe an F150 S spring is in order. Another application of VHT wouldn't hurt , either (wink-wink, nudge-nudge). I should be around over the Xmas break, so- Come On Down!
I bet I can shave a tenth w/ an electric fan. I do like the stealthiness of the stock exhaust. I will try the h-pipe if I can find it cheap.
Oh, yeah- shifting right at 5500- breaks up if I go higher.

Take It Easy!

JL

ps- Throttle body is still stock, too...
and the sway is still there.

True, just like before, most of our races will come down to reaction time... but the tables have fliped now! F-150 spring is.... not fun! You have to become creative to get it to work! You saw my electric fan... you can't even notice it. Few people notice it until I point it out. Bob Cosby the Great use to unbolt his fan at the track and claimed a consistant 0.05 second gain. The shade-tree formally known as 93-ex-chp pulled off 12.9's with the stock stuff...no reason why you can't do it... just whore your car out a little bit Mean Green 12second stocker machine... I can see the FM.com story now! Next time I come to watch or race, I'll be sure to bring the VHT. I can't take all the credit though, it was John91coupe's generosity in the first place.

I still haven't hit 80.X yet in the 1/8th. I think a 79.7-79.9 is my best

I wasn't taking the pic's Gabe, My little bro was. Yaeh I saw Justin run the 13.68. Thats awesome with only a home made ran air and 4:10's. My best on radials was only a 13.8. I think with ET streets, he will go 13.2 or 13.3 w/ a little practice. Long tubes, shifter, and some tire should get him in the 13.0 range.

Great runs guys! I wish my car was running so I could take a crack at this winter air! I'm sure it's a tenth or two faster than the last time I was out there in the middle of summer!

Jealous of the stockers, esp!

edit: yes, I am a D.A. hater!
