Thread: Cracked the 11 second barrier at last!

11's is fast man! congrats!..I wanna go past 3rd gear so Bad!!!
(1/8th track is a tease!)
thanks for the vids man! (im taking donations for a "GoPro Hero" by the way! )

good job man. need to get that 60ft down to be in the 11.40 range

Is that a challenge?!?!

A Jorb Well Done

Congrats. You guys missed his old posts. The track is prepped like ass. I would like to see that car at a track prepped like E-Town.

Yeah it basicly looks like drag racing on an old airstrip, Yeah you have the power and mph to go low low 11's, you just need traction hence a good track. What did you have your slick pressure at? Might try messing more with tire pressure. What size slick are you running and what psi.

Congrats on finally hitting those 11's. Keep up the good work. Your improving every time out by the looks of it. Keep it up.

I said this in another thread of his.

I am a huge fan of this car!

The tires are M&H Racemaster 23/8.5/15 and I ran them at 8 psi.

There is a new drag strip being built within an hours drive, so only time will tell on just how quick I can go there but at Crail Raceway it is just hopeless.

This is the reason why the times are never great. You can have all the power in the World but you just can't put it to the ground.

Thanks guys for the support and comments

Congrats, the car is flying. Love the car.

Here is the only known video of the actual 11 second run..

I never realised how poor the launches actually were...LOL!

Yeah thats horrible. Definitely need a better track. Good job though non the less for the conditions you were running on.
