Fontana drag 12/4, hoping to go . . .

Wanted to post this and see who else can make it. It's a saturday and it's a 1/4 mi track. Bryant can you make it? Jeff said he'll come . . . after he fixes his "nitrous".

 

i dont see why not. sounds like fun.

Bryant and I are going, if anyone else is up for it meet us there. We didn't get the T5 into his car in time so he's gonna leave it at his shop. He is gonna ride with me.

 

good luck, what et are you hoping for

 

I have a weak 2nd gear in the t5 and stock tires. I did high 15 on the old motor so hopefully 14 on this one

 

First run missed 2nd and 4th. 60 ft time 2.48 peeled out. 77.39mph and 15.85sec. And sadly my 1/8th mile was 76.14mph

 

Bryant just did a run with my car, he squeeled down the track 14.26 and 106.6mph

 

mph should be good for high 12's

 

What tires are you running? Dont tell me its the street radials

 

I have sadly admit, street radial. I didn't have the funds for slicks and I think if I hooked up too well I would have destroyed something.

High 12's .... man, that would be amazing.

 

Yeah I thought about that after I posted. Any rear end plans soon?

 

Yea bryant said he is gonna set me up with a 9", probably 3.80 gears. I got through traps in 3rd shifting at 6200

 

It was like driving on ice in first gear. I think I did too big of a burn out and got the BFG radials greasy. Then I some hit second on that t5 that grinds unless you shift slower than grandma on a Sunday after church let's out, and it blew the tires off again. Had a great time and many thanks to Mo for letting have a shot at driving his car. I can't wait to get a t5 into my car.
