Very nice pics! Looked like a lot of fun.
|
looks like 13.05 was the fastest for the day. True street is a rough class. Looks like fun.
|
Are those regular chrome 03 cobras?

Going to be disconnecting the sway bar next time and am probably going to swap to fox springs in the rear. These MM springs just don't transfer weight for shit, the pics prove that.

Why only 80 shot? Go with 125.
Your rear has to be the nicest i've ever seen on a mustang. Its very well put together. No Homo. |

Just ordered some true 100 & 125 whp jets today, but I think we're going to run on the 80 for a while and get all I can out of it then bump it up to 100 or 125.. Most likely going to be upgrading the rear end this winter to 31 spline stuff, may even bump it up to a 4.10, still undecided on that part though. Damn, thanks for the compliment man! I'm loving how it's coming together, Actually got a ton of compliments on it this weekend @ NMRA and that felt damn good.

you car looks like its transferring fine...just that big ass sway bar keeping it from really transferring that energy to the rear wheels. You dont want rear end squat and your car already looks like it squats a tiny bit. You'll figure it out through your own trial and error. Best thing to do is big and littles and your times will literally drop half second.

The car isn't squatting much at all, maybe 1/2" - 3/4" at the most.. Still not 100% sure on the plan there.. Looking at doing fox springs ATM. Working on my winter list right now and so far: 31 spline diff/axles, maybe 4.10's, possibly going to do an aluminum driveshaft, SLP Line-lock and probably going to go ahead and try to upgrade the fuel pump. |

so wat did u enter? was there a true street challenge?
because i plan on taking my stang and entering for the first time...kind of want to gather some info.... NMRA is coming to houston in Nov. i gotta get ready.... |
Just show up and be NHRA compliant. True Street is heads up run what you brung (thats what makes it a beast) Since you have a aftermarket power adder you will need a single layer fire jacket and helmet. I suggest at a minimum running a VERY sticky drag radial, none of that Nitto 555 DR's, way better out there for the money now. If you have slicks and bolt them on make sure you have a drive shaft safety loop installed.
It would be sweet if they broke the TS group up by tire choice but I doubt that will happen for a NMRA event. I rather run a club track rental day over an event like that. Good luck to anyone that races. |
They didn't tech for shit here.. He didn't even really look at anything including my helmet.. I wouldn't worry too much.

It doesn't look like the track was prepped too well either?
Video here: Skip ahead to about 1:05. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=do9rWWRz98o |
Hey Evan, are you leaving on the bottle or is it coming in a little later and what tire are you runnin' on the back for the strip? Car looks good making a pass (nice and straight) and sounds like the old driver was doin pretty good on the gears.
I believe I would unhook the sway bar and see what it feels like (you might shit your pants) but it would look good while doing it :D |

Sway bar will definitely be getting disconnected next time out. Ordered a set of 4cyl fox rear springs today too $25 FTW! Thanks for the compliment on the gears. I'm working on regaining my confidence all over again.. After breaking the shift fork a couple of weeks ago I feel like I was driving it like a granny for the most part this weekend just being very deliberate and engaging the clutch 100%. |

And here are a couple more pics.
I was surprised, but I actually ended up beating the Brenspeed '10 GT heads up. He was on DR's & skinnies too. He ran a 13.157 to my 12.900. Attachment 14883 Attachment 14884 This one makes me particularly happy... I almost always get fucked by the bastard that comes in and runs the slow ass car or truck in brackets. I always either can't catch them or break out doing it and this time I KO'ed the spoiler! Bracket racing drives me nuts and it felt good to finally get rid of one of these bastards!

Very nice, I can't wait to start racing and now I really want a cam, I love the way it sounds.
What's a bracket racing? What's that sound at 1:21? What was the newer mustang at 2:25 doing? |

haha...my old car is a damn race car now.
