I wish the car was done. I'd be out there with you! Ohwell. Another time.

so i made it past first round eliminations,i got knocked out 2nd round cause my poor reaction time. i was .15 faster but .2 slower reaction... i am not used to the pro tree yet. my best time tonight was a 11.6 @116 with a 1.63 60ft i am running out of gear way too early i have to let off the last 100 ft. i am switching to my 3.73 and my clutch was slipping bad at the end of the night as soon as nitrous kicked in it was slipping. so a new clutch,new gears,and i am going to get a chip to get rid of my rev limiter and i should be 11.0

that is correct sir. 347 stroker trickflow top end 10:1 compression full exhaust,t-5 transmission,100 shot of nitrous,some suspension work,ET STREETS, i think the gears are going to help alot it should make the nitrous more effecient. i spend more time shifting then spraying.

78mach1 · August 18th, 2008, 02:22 AM

not bad at all, looks like your starting to get the car dialed in

ryans88gt · August 18th, 2008, 10:06 AM

That T5 will never last...

I bracket race a bit myself not in my mustang with another car that I own.

Looks like you did alright. On your first round did you dial 11.50 and you went a11.77 that is way off. You can't win like that. Main thing in bracket racing is you have to do everything exactly the same. Same RPM on launch same shift point everything must be the same and you can go rounds like that. Lets not forget R/T time.

Run in 12.00 and slower class. Don't spray. It's bracket racing noone cares how fast you go. You there to win rounds and take home the bacon.

If you want to go fast and spray go on T&T night.

Not trying to knock what you did or anything. Just trying to help out. I like bracket racing.

that's what I'm thinking........ Your going to have a lot of people hate you at the track when your tranny fluid has to be cleaned up....

anyway some nice times. I hope the gears make a big difference for you, it sure sounds like they will.....
