My Car

08RoushGT · August 6th, 2009, 12:56 PM

My car is officially slow ... Just thought I would share that with everyone!!! Ran about the same at the track last night!

blownbayou · August 6th, 2009, 01:04 PM

No problem raceway?

Avengence · August 6th, 2009, 01:08 PM

Whats slow?

13 second quarter mile?

08RoushGT · August 6th, 2009, 01:21 PM

yeah No Problem ... 1.89 60 ft, 13.06 @ 101.94

forensicsteve · August 6th, 2009, 01:26 PM

You could be as much as 1/2 second off with the heat and humidity down here right now. This is definitely the off-season for racing right now

08RoushGT · August 6th, 2009, 01:36 PM

That's what I figured but I just can not seem to break below 13.0. A 12.99 would make me happy enough. LOL When is your car gonna be completed Steve?

bigpappy33 · August 6th, 2009, 01:39 PM

thats a really low trap, are you going all the way through? what gear do you end up in when you go through? and are you powershifting? non blown GTs trap like 105-108mph...

Your numbers is correct with the mods that you have installed. You will need to install that 2.57" pulley and get it customed tuned to get into the 12's. Support mods for those will be long tube headers and x-pipe. Are you running drag radials? If not get this first before you move on.

chad05gt · August 6th, 2009, 02:02 PM

Street tires and heat/humidity... those are great times!

102mph telling me you cant even go WOT 'till about 600 feet w/o slidding! LOL

08RoushGT · August 6th, 2009, 02:06 PM

I am running MT et Street Radials and I have an Auto.

bigpappy33 · August 6th, 2009, 02:07 PM

Oh i didn't see street tires, how hot was it? In April in the Florida sun i went 13.06 @106 on my 20s and street tires with a worse 60'. Im wondering why with even a roushcharger you are trapping 101. must be getting some killer heatsoak or something.

Edit: so you did have drag radials? hmm...

... ok... you're being too nice to it.

I cannot see a tuned FI car w/ drag radials NOT get into 12's on the sun, uphill, w/ a head wind.

That car's too damn purdy! LOL!

I dont think I could be mean to it either

08RoushGT · August 6th, 2009, 02:40 PM

I still have the stock tune which I know has a lot to do with it.

bigpappy33 · August 6th, 2009, 02:43 PM

yea, id get the smaller pulley first (since it would need a tune anyway) then go get it tuned! especially with an auto your tuner can optimize your shift points and what not.

In your sig, you have that it is a Wes car...??

08RoushGT · August 6th, 2009, 03:04 PM

It also says "in the near future"

bigpappy33 · August 6th, 2009, 03:04 PM

dangit u beat me

forensicsteve · August 6th, 2009, 04:21 PM

When is your car gonna be completed?

Not that were not eager to get back to the strip, but the awful heat/humidity is not making us rush either. Cold fronts are what still maybe 6-7 weeks away?

The powerglide build started this week. Not sure what's left after that? Think the guys at TPS are going to race friday night. Have you met some of the other local FI fellas....BJ....Beau...Kenneth?

HOLLYWD69 · August 6th, 2009, 04:38 PM

I need to make it out to NPR one night and make a few runs.
