1/4 mile track progress

Im shooting for 8.5x's at 80mph with stock gears, suspension and stock PI heads/cams. Any ideas?

As a staed earlier, I think a tubular k member and a dynabatt up front should get me .1, gears and Lt Headers, and a built rear end with 15 inch wheels and et streets should get me another .2, at lease I hope.

I just got in from the track and things didn't go so well for me Ran with a passenger on the first one against a Firehawk that was bugging me. I planned on spraying against him and had a passenger in the car though wasn't able to even use spray since my O2s weren't heated enough before the run Ran a 9.25at 76 on that run and lost by a car and a half All in good fun though Not too terrible I guess for the first run with a passenger.


2nd run I allowed the car to warm up and when it came time to activate nitrous (I was on my smallest jet btw) the fuse popped so no spray + lots of fuel = no bueno. Ran a 9.11 on that pass @ 76.60 :sigh:

Fixed my mild wiring problem and went back to get my final pass in. Everything was looking good then I checked my temp gauge and noticed it was beginning to climb. I knew it was an air pocket in the cooling system since I was toying with it during cool down. Like an idiot I squeezed the radiator hose not really thinking about it After waiting about 15 mins for it to cool down enough for me to finally begin to slowly open it--the track was closed

Not a good night for my car I did get everything settled after leaving the track and got the nitrous to activate without problems. Just a mild 50 shot that pretty much owned me tonight

Thanks 04GTMustang.

CRred, I know its a tall order, but I think it will happen. The car proboly wont see any more mods until the fall.

Right now, I have to focus on the brakes, motor mounts, clutch, and possibly rear end. Not to mention my PI heads are still at the machine shop, so Im not sure if they will check out either.
