FloPro single turbo 1st track times

[Black Stampede]

Since rio never posts he told me to throw up some quick times from today. After not hooking at all for the first few passes he found a sticky line and it hooked HARD. He ran an 11.12 at 122 mph. It was sick. I'll telll him to scan the timeslip and post it or something.

that's awsome!! Can't wait till I get my turbo. Is there a video?

 

[nmcgrawj]

What kind of 60ft? What tire/suspension setup?

 

[Mustangless]

I can't wait till I turbo my car

 

[mootang]

I'm sending my check in the mail today. I cant wait either!!

 

[wytstang]

Cool man that great...

 

[BlueOvalStangGT]

11.1 @ 122??? He had to be hooking up pretty decent to be getting that close to tens with a 122 mph!

 

[yellow1995Cobra]

Sick times! Congrats

 

[Black Stampede]

Yeah, we got it on video. My mistake about the 122 mph though. That run actually had no mph. It didn't come up on either the board or on the slip. Sucks, but at least it shows the time.

In other news, he went dead even with a Suzuki GSX-R 750 last night and that was with only 12 psi. He figured 15 psi would have beaten it.

I'm not familiar with his combo, what is it again? 11.1 with no MPH? What was the 60'? What was the 1/8th MPH?

Um, yes, 11.1 with no mph . What doesnt make sense? It's on video if you want to call BS. Combo is ported GT40Ps, Trick flow street heat intake, Trick Flow stage 1 cam, and a 62mm DIY single turbo.

I'm not doubting you I just want to see a video of the run.

I was referring to paul calling the bs.

 

[Redsnake2]

yea well once I buy my last wastegate and somemore plumbing I'm going to start my turbo install and you are all welcome to comment and watch my headaches..

 

[Killercanary]

Calm down, I didn't call BS, I simply asked why there wasn't any MPH with an 11.1. Why are you getting all huffy?

The reason I asked my other questions is so that we could derive an estimate of what kind of trap speed he actually would have seen. Its just wierd is all that there is no MPH shown. I have drag raced enough to see a few weird things happen with the timing lights. I have made a at over 200mph in my car. Did I actually do that? Hell no, it was obviously a glitch in the timing setup. I have also had slips with no ET for certain parts of the track. I'm not saying his times were a glitch either, but knowing some of the other numbers would help "paint a picture" so to speak of what the rest of run looked like to determine that it was a legitimate pass. Like did he hook to a 1.5 60' and only trap 120mph, or did he have a 2.3 60' and trap over 130? Is the 1/8th mile MPH above or below 100? That will be a good indicator is he was in the mid to low 120's or closer to or above 130. I was asking for my own knowledge, but figured it was something that may help him too. I know I sure as hell would want to know if my run was actually an 11.1 so that I could make changes to get into the 10's! If he trapped over 100 in the 1/8th 10's shouldn't be too hard, if he only trapped 95mph in the 1/8th then it will be much harder. Do you now understand why I asked what I did? I RARELY call BS, and 11.1's from his setup isn't anything that far out there to call BS on.

Did he get any 1/4 MPH's on the other runs?

i too am interesed in the rest of the story....

Don't worry, I'm not huffy. Other mph were around 120 when it spun half the track.

 

[Kevin R.]

That is an impressive time.

I think I want a turbo.

 

[mootang]

this is the last time I'm going to ask!!

WHERE IS THE VIDEO?





















sorry, i get excited some times.

 

[Black Stampede]

Ha, its not my car nor my digi cam that took the vid so I can't post it. Rio doesnt come on here much, but Im sure he'll post it when he does.

Whether or not the 11.12 was legit I guess we wouldn't be too worried either way. His mph was enough to make us happy so even mid-high 11s which are a guarantee would be fine with us! What sucks is that by the time he found the right lane and line to hook hard we had to leave after 1 pass. Ah well.

And for all you guys wanting to go turbo now I definitely recommend it. I was 100% planning on buying a crotch rocket this summer, but since rio's car has been finished I have pretty much changed my mind since we can so easily replicate his kit for my car.
