104.33 is going to take a real good 60' and some good driving but can go 12s. Of course depending on the weight of the car.

I was at this race. Brother was there Saturday and said it was DEAD. Sunday was weak but not too bad. A lot of cars in our Gear Jammers class, a decent amount in the 11.5 index.

Everyone I went with ran new bests too!!!

INCLUDING you right? Better update that sig, went 12.54 right?

25thmustang · Nov 3, 2008

Close it was a 12.53, lol.

Car weighs in @3184 lbs w/me in it(180lbs).Next year i will definately have a tire that hooks.I managed 5 runs including my first and only bracket class run that i broke out on.I ran a best new time but my car was so inconsistant went 13.4,15.5 missed a gear,never happened before)13.7,13.6 and then a 13.5 on a 13.6 dial in.Still had fun.

Is it normally that dead there?? i was surprised how dead it was when i was there.. I just figured there would be a whole bunch of people there. The racing was awesome and the car show had some nice cars (there was a gt500 SS there )

I guess cause it was November? not too many people were interested in coming out?

I put Hack Job away too early....but I didn't want to be out there washing it up when it was 30*. Oh well, there's always next year. I hate winter!

wht93gtEd · Nov 3, 2008

why don't I see any pics of anything in here yet???

25thmustang · Nov 3, 2008

I personally didn't take pictures, spent too much time racing, and relaxing.

Its usually not that dead, no idea why noone wants to race anymore. A real shame too, if the events dont fill, the tracks get rid of them.

3185 with that trap speed is going to have a tough time going 12s. 105+ and it should be in the 12.8-12.9 range though.

I am definately gonna do a cam and valve springs this winter,well springtime because i hate working in the cold,getting old.Anybody got any recomendations for a off the shelf cam?I will try to post a vid of my runs later tonight.

MY 85 GT · Nov 3, 2008

I'll run my car alot next year i want to have some stuff done to it so i can run some decent times.......I hate going to race with a slow car.....

25thmustang · Nov 3, 2008

Nothing wrong with slow, I was running mid 12s in the 11.50 index class, just to get some more runs in. The announcer even made fun of my brother and I. He mad the comment... "wow, both cars wayy off the 11.5 index".

Get tires a torqe converter,shift kit and gears,theres a real nice guy down there with a aod notch that runs 13.6-13.7s consistantly with some bolt ons and the tranny stuff.Throw on a 125 shot and you should be a mid 12s

Yeah my plan is to do a Lentech Valve body, mild torque convertor..some nittos, and doing shorty headers,BBK h-pipe with high flow cats, A new cat back....american thunder kit with the new super 44's 2.5 inch all the way back....all the little bolt ons...and im going with a Plate kit from NX that goes under the upper intake...new fuel pump...and spray it a 150 shot...i hope to be in the 12's

Here are some pics from asbury.. Unfortunately most of them were blurry because I didnt bring a tripod. Even these are blurry

25thmustang · Nov 4, 2008

Yikes they were pretty blurry huh? The setting was just bad for those pics I think. We will get it next time . Oh yeah, get some damn pics of your car in the sun already!

wow man...photography ftl...

you should've found something to put the camera on at least...like a curb or something. I mean, comon, it's Asbury!...there wasn't a bum laying around that you could've just perched the camera on?

25thmustang · Nov 4, 2008

Thats funny, we discussed all of those options in the parking lot there... couldnt find anything!
