The car nosed over VERY hard above 4200rpms. After much debate, mark and I guess that the custom chip was pulling out too much timing and possably running too rich. So for the last run we pulled the chip out set the timing on the low side and went 11.498 @ 119.46(with 6-7 pounds of boost). We guessed right. All the runs I made were made in drive letting the tranny shift by itsself (at 4800 rpm). I tried the AOD 1-2-1 shift handle came off in my hand. With a manual valve body, my wide ban 02 and some more tuning dare I say 10.99 at 125 or should i sell it and use the money to finish my car????
sell it to me, lol

Good night, it was my first time at the drag strip. First run was a 14.0 at 102mph, my best run of the night was 13.54@105.05 with a 2.19 60'. I did screw up on 2/6 runs though. I was beating some kid in a pre 99 GT, and on the 2-3 shift I fugged up and my whole rear end shook violently.
I'm hooked now.

This is in reference to the argument between David and Ross while trying to figure out how to match up cars. David wanted to do it mod for mod which is not applicable with such different cars. Ross was trying to do it by ET which is the only logical way to do it in this circumstance. But yes, David was showing respect for domestics.

Now, with $1k in mods... new best lastnight of 13.8 @ 104.45 w/a 2.22 60'.
Just gotta learn how to launch the sucker.

I had a lot of problems with my car running hot, overboost, fuel cut and other tuning issues.
I ran a new best of 13.15 @ 108. I also ran as bad as a 17 @ 65.
Was a fun night. The race with the red RX7 and the Red SS (the president of the norcal LS1 club) was set up by me.
His rx7 ran a 12.4 in that race, his best of the night was 12.2.
Some cool cars, I wish I could have ran good times.

but you dont mention how your "buddy" got stomped by low tech lt1 ........the so called presidents car has a mild stall, pullies a lid and slicks......wow!! holy shit !! i saw numerous low 12 second ls1's @ 120 mph.......very nice stuff.........the f8lrx7killer busted a 11.1 or 11.2 at 122 mph..........thank you come again.
oh and i really think you should take a driving class, not talking shit, but your buddy has less mods than you and runs a full second faster at your same mph......hmmm

Josh,
You did not hear the entire conversation. The guy told me we cannot race mod for mod cause exhausts do alot for my car and nothing for his. He said Its NOT fair to compare a turbo to a N/A engine cause we can up the boost. thats when I said "Well you have 5.7 liters, I have 1.3, I need my turbos" Thats what i am talking about. You did not hear the entire conversation.
I am a software engineer so yes I am a geek and YES I respect american cars. What makes you think I don't? Cause I like my car?

Thank you. This is exactly what happens when someone walks by and hears PART of a conversation.

I assume your talking to me. Ok, who is my buddy that has less mods than me and runs a full second faster? I ran a 13.15 @ 108. The guy that runs a 12.2 has WAY, WAY, WAY, WAY more mods than me. The guy that ran 13 flat has no cats.
I had fuelcut issues all day and overheating problems. Next, I don't know what the VP's car has and I don't care. He told me to my face that NO rx7 will beat him that night. He flat out told me my friend will not beat him, even though I told him he runs 12.2. What ever, they had a great race.
And yes I need driving lessons. Thats why I go to the track to get better.
I don't know who got stompped by a "lo-teck" LT1. I don't doubt it either. This guy in the RX7 that runs 12.2 is doing it on the stock twins, thats very impressive. I love his car.
There is always someone faster.

Damn, if an aluminum, opti-spark, electric water pump, 6 speed tranny, ect LT1 is low-tech, what does that make those mid 1960's technology 5.O motors with early 80's german fuel injection ontop of them?

Also met a few guys that post on here as well. Toney with the silver LT1(good race!) and the RX7 displacement replacement. Cool guys. Also meet someone with the v6 stang but can remember the name. cool dude as well. How did everyone else do??????????
That was my black Trans Am that raced your wife when she got the 14.1 :-)
I raced displacement_replacement on the last race and pulled a 13.9@100.7 to his 13.8@102.8
My best run was my first run (5:45pm, and my new best ET): 13.56@104.3 with a (new best) 2.055 60 ft
My other runs were: 13.8@104.6, 13.8@103, and 13.8@104.4
Safety Tip: DO NOT let your hand slip off the shift knob while missing the 2-3 shift. My right thumb has a nice blood blister from being nearly ripped off during my last race

that night was rather tense. While I was happy with a new record, I had so many issues, with my car overheating. my temps hit 114 on the way home when it was cold out. I was a few degrees away from blowing my engine. As far as staging, I never had that problem at sears and while I admit it had to have been stupid. I found it hard to get around the water box on the left lane and just messed up I guess. I dont know what to say I guess I passed the mark and when my rear wheels hit the beam I thought it was my front.

staging with the rear tires is classic. now what you're supposed to do, is *PRETEND* it was on purpose. you know, kind of like running the whole way down with the hazards on, etc. etc.

Okay, that makes sense... for some reason I thought they were 36lbs injectors modified to 72's, not 30lbs ones. No doubt the car is running rich with that MAF/injector setup. Tune it to 12:1 and let her rip....... or like Justin said, you can pulley it up and let the extra HP soak up the extra fuel its getting now

I'm sorry guy...I misread your post. been a little defensive lately.
BTW.....your link your mustang is not working. I race this guy in a 67 mustang at sears point occasionaly (we have had 2 races). We are always neck and neck and when he breaks out of his time, I do the same, so its a cool competition, sorta.
Any pics? the fastbacks are cool looking.
