killed a modded charger srt-8. "Video"

[Musclefan21]

I don't know his mods but as you can hear, he got at least exhaust.:D

nice kill!

[kwade]

Thought str-8's were faster than that?It didn't run but a 14.0

[patricksd]

They do run a lot faster than 14.0s. The guy either didn't launch correctly, it was his first time at the track, or he had horrible traction. Not that the SRT8 would be running high 11's, but more like mid to high 12's.

[Street Lethal]

11.74@122.8mph w/ 1.81 60'

Something wrong with that track's clock? You should be running much faster than a 11.74 with that trap and sixty foot.... ;)

yeah the trap is good for mid-low 11s. i did 2 passes only that day.

first run that^^^ and second run 11.76@122.1mph with 1.73 60' i blew the alternator after i shifted to 3rd and kinda paniced and let go and got back on the car and ran slower times than my best. i even ran .1 faster on 1/8 mile. that was my 11.6-5 run right there:cry:

yeah that charger could have run better than that but i doubt he would be anywhere close to mid 12s. I would still murder him even if he would have run low 12s:happy:

[2000T/A Guru]

What track is that at?

[Musclefan21]

What track is that at?

Great Lakes Dragway union grove, WI

[Deuuuce]

Dude, great times, cool car but SURELY you raced something faster than a lousy driver running a 14.0 in low 13sec car??

Thats like me posting a V6 Mustang kill on the Bimmerforums!

[kyemt]

yea but u posting a v6 kill is all u can do, u cant get a video of a charger killing anything else. lol

[Musclefan21]

i think his 60' killed him, he cut 2.3 60 and i did 1.8

[Redegal]

Nice kill. Does your Cobra still have the stock SC on it? I'm fascinated at how fast those cars can go.

[Musclefan21]

Nice kill. Does your Cobra still have the stock SC on it? Just curious what you can get out of those cars with the stock SC.

yes, i still have the stock blower. there are some ran 10.9x with stock supercharger, stock rear, 6 speed, full weight.

on this run as you see i launched it easy and cut 1.8 60' ran 11.74. with harder launch like 1.5x - 1.6x 60' the car can go 11.5- 11.4s with only 4 mods i have. if i port the blower and throtle body thats another 40rwhp and get a lower pulley and another 30-40rwtq and wth good driving 10s isn't far but low low 11s with stock blower is easy!

[Redegal]

That's fast and with that kind of MPH I wouldn't think 10's would be too hard to accomplish.

[Musclefan21]

That's fast and with that kind of MPH I wouldn't think 10's would be too hard to accomplish.

that mph is out of only pulley, intake , exhaust. which is impressive if you ask me since the car weights 3870lbs with me in it.

with port, lower pulley, heat exchanger, good weather with will trap high 120s easy

"11.74@122.8mph w/ 1.81 60"
something is wrong with that clock,either the MPH or the time. with that MPH and 60' it should have been something closer to 10.9X. if your car really ran an 11.74, then the MPH should be closer to 116MPH judging by that 60' time.

My brother ran an 11.3 in his GN and trapped 117MPH. That's seems about right.
He might be losing time somewhere else like between shifts? Alot of folks on the Buick board are running high 11's with the same 112 MPH trap speed as me and I can't get out of the 12's even with a 1.6 second 60' time. Go figure.

My brother ran an 11.3@117 in his GN and I thought that was about right. Maybe the OP is losing time between shifts? Also, alot of the folks on the Buick board are running high 11's with the same trap speed as me but I can't get out of the 12's even with a 1.6 second 60' time. Go figure.

[TrickStang37]

maybe youre losing a lil time somewhere too, anyways have you tried going to a different track?i would think that with a 112MPH trap and 1.6' 60' you MIGHT be closer to an 11.6-11.8 but anyways estimates sometimes tend to get skewed when the 60' drops below the 1.8 range.also, i dont mean to sound like an ass but i dont think i fully understood your post,were you agreeing with me or disagreeing? also,what was your brothers 60' time? 1.7?

[Redegal]

i dont mean to sound like an ass but i dont think i fully understood your post,were you agreeing with me or disagreeing? also,what was your brothers 60' time? 1.7?Huh, good question lol. I guess I'm disagreeing. Maybe there could be other factors involved with a higher ET other than a bad launch. If he gets a good launch but loses time from shifting, he might still be able to accomplish the same MPH but with a higher ET. Hope that makes sense.

My brother's 60' times average between 1.5-1.7. I think on that 11.3 second run he got a 1.5 60'.

[TrickStang37]

i was always under the impression that you lose more MPH from spinning or letting of the gas than actual E.T loss. Ive seen tons of cars let off before the end of the 1/4 and the slip would not make sense,looking something like 13.3@89MPH. anyways Have you tried running at other tracks?
i have a friend who INSISTS we ONLY go to Sacramento Raceway because both times we went to Sears Point, cars were running about 4-5MPH slower than they should (LS1's were trapping 102 and LT1's were around 95) but i still think Sears Point is a much nicer track. I think when slips dont make too much sense the best thing to do is try another run at a different track, and while "best" times can be fun to talk about, averaging them out gives you a better idea how quick your car really is.

[Redegal]

I haven't tried any other tracks yet. I would like to get down to Englishtown one of these days. Anyhow, I'm right on the border line for 11's (12.0@112). I got a different chip and some other little things that should push me over the mark for my next visit at my local track.

When I look at my time slips from the last time out I got a 12.0@112MPH three times in a row. My 60' times were around 1.6-1.7. However, I had this one bad run with a 1.9 second 60' and I kept spinning after that. Well, even though my ET was a 12.5, my MPH was still 112MPH on that run.

[TrickStang37]

well,it still seems (to me at least) that at least the 60' times are off there, a 1.9@112 SHOULD put you closer to 12.2

[SnakeEatr]

yea but u posting a v6 kill is all u can do, u cant get a video of a charger killing anything else. lol

Bet I can take you M-loving butt! :nutkick: :food:

[SnakeEatr]

you dont know speed then man, I eat Cobra's pretty often! :food:

[Musclefan21]

my mph should have been around 116???????

i trapped 114 bone stock at totally different track and i trapped 119 on 2000ft D/A i beat a car trapped 122mph on the streets from a 60 roll.

I guess you need to forget about paper racing and come to reality. nothing is wrong with the clock. the car trapped 122.8mph and has potential to trap even more on cooler air.

[Redegal]

I dug up my time slips. That 12.5 run got me a 110MPH trap speed and a 1.9 sec. 60'. Thought it was 112. O.K. no more bench racing for me. Sorry to jack to thread.

[Deuuuce]

yea but u posting a v6 kill is all u can do, u cant get a video of a charger killing anything else. lol

DUDE, by the way, there was NO 2004 M6 BMW. Most people list their model, not their transmission....

Hey! That's not very nice! :) I'll spell it: U-T-U-B-E

How about every non-E60 M series BMW?

BTW, what was the first year of the M6? I don't remember

im having a hard time believing that. Most pullied Cobras run (stock about 110) 114-117 at my track. Also, most stock or near stock LS1's run 105-107 but ive seen people post as high as 110-111 for a near stock LS1 so i guess it all depends on the track. Your time slip still doesnt make any sense btw but keep believing what you want

[Redegal]

I'm confused. 2000FT DA? That's more than a 1/4 mile. A 1/4 track is 1320ft.

[TrickStang37]

2000ft DA is 2000ft density altitude. basically the wheather made it the equivalent of 2000ft above sea level.

[SpeedAddict38]

nice run

O.K. gotcha.

so you are saying just because most cobras at YOUR track trap 110 stock and 114-117 pullied that means thats what they can do? i guess you need to read more about cobras then! and don't forget not everyone can drive them!

last night i raced a 2v built GT with vortech blower who trapped 119mph on 90+ degrees weather and he put down 525rwhp and 477rwtq and 60-140mph dead even. neither of us could gain or lose and this was on like 50 degrees weather which would make him trap like 122+mph.

so if my car is capable of trapping 117mph how come i hunged with that car all the way? His car wasn't running right or something is wrong with his dyno sheet?

or how about this, i ran against a big turbo srt-4 who trapped 122mph and i out 2 cars on him on the highway at night, so the track he went to had clock issues as well?

or how about this sir, i raced against 380fwhp stage-3 srt-4 who trapped like 119mph and here is the video of me pulling on a 119mph trapped srt-4

http://s29.photobucket.com/albums/c255/elfkonig/?action=view&current=CleanRun1.flv

go to www.chicagolandmustang.com and ask about me and my car there and talk to people who raced and what they trap and how i did against them.

go to www.chicagosvt.com and do a little research and see handfull of pullied cobras trapping 120+mph

go to www.svtperformance.com and do the same research.


i raced a eaton blown mach-1 who trapped 120mph and after 3rd gear started pull on him.

as i said, i guess you need to learn more or really stop talking because it looks like you believe what you want instead of reality.

i ran 12.70@113mph bone stock and best trap was 114mph on a totally different track. I guess every track around here has clock issues, i should warn them!

You have no idea what your car is capable of man.

have a nice day my friend!
