Vids of my runs @ Pony Wars last weekend

[Stark77]

Myself and a few other folks from TMCA (Tallahassee Muscle Car Association), went up to Valdosta, Georgia on the 13th to race in Pony Wars 2010. It's a GM vs FORD vs MOPAR event, all cars had to be insured and have valid registrations - ie, street driven street legal cars. Lots of awesome cars out there, GT500's, Saleen SC GT's, Roush GT's, supercharged/turbo'd mustang GT's, lots of head/cam/intake GTO's, corvettes, and even a rare classic big block gran torino. Steeda was one of the big sponsors and they put on a tour of their new factory right down the road from the racetrack - South Georgia Motorsport Parkway.

It was about 45 degrees outside with 15 mph headwinds, steady all day. My best run was against a twin screw supercharged (not sure if it was roushcharged, KB, or what) blue S197 GT driven by an older woman. I ran a 13.2 @ 102.7, 1.88 60ft, .11 reaction time. She redlighted and pulled a 12.9.

Next run was against a cam/intake/possibly heads red GTO with slicks. I cut a 13.3 to his 12.67, I had a nice holeshot on him but that car pulled like a raped ape.

good runs man, why didn't you use the juice?

 

[Stark77]

Track temp was low and no bottle warmer - mixed in with a little bit of laziness. Fastest car of the day was a 9.5, followed by lots of low 10's.

you got beaten by a woman in a yacht?

on a more serious note , good runs

Nice videos, looks like a good time. Cool to see that your girl is into that as well.

Pretty nice E.T.'s for a bolt on/geared auto. Do you have any times on the spray?

 

[Stark77]

Thanks man, I appreciate that. Yeah, she's a good sport and is does a nice job with the camera. Now she needs some wheel time. I don't think there's much left to squeeze out E/T wise on the motor until I get these cams installed. Before I installed long tubes and aluminum DS I ran a 12.8 on a 50 shot, spraying off the line.

Not bad at all! It should really wake up now on the hose!

What size/brand tires are you running? That's the 60's I'm looking for for my 98 when I get the S/C on.

Nitto 555R drag radials each @ 20PSI - launch at 2k.
Update for the GT500 run, the Sheby's ET was actually an 11.58
