1/2 mile guess vs actual

[Breze84]

My best was 147.7, I think the car has too much traction for stock power on that surface. Best pass I just matted the gas and dumped it, pedaled it slightly. Final pass I left off the LC @ 4300 and it only spun for about 10' and bogged - ran a 146.8 that pass.

I was happy I didn't miss second at all

Too much traction hurt your mph?

I DID Then I went back and read some...

I wasnt able to make it because my built gears looked like this:

How the fuck did you melt them?

 

[RICH17]

tooo much POWAAARRR!!!!

 

[Eagle]

Maybe it was too much traction

tooo much POWAAARRR!!!!

Yeah.... something like that

Maybe it was too much traction

haha.... I'm not so sure about that, video would say otherwise



Here's how:


I believe there was some bad quality control on the gears (they are billet gears good for 900hp) or bad metal stock

I'm the first person ever in north america to break this gearset, and I did it at a lot less HP than what many others are pushing on this gearset.

Talking to the distributor and manufacturer later this week.

4:20 is where the fun starts

Damn that's sucks! Hope everything works out. At least you have video proof of what happened. To help you fight it if needed.

My buddies stock 14 gt500 ran 151 on his last pass.

Off the LC @ 3000 RPM I might add...

I was hoping for 163, I hit a best of 157. I also attribute this to the heat, but overall I was very happy how the car ran and pulled. It was the first time I've ever ran it out of first gear to fifth since the A&A kit was installed. This was an absolute blast, hoping to hit at least 160 in October (still want that 163 number)

Here are a few of my runs;

Here's a pic I took of your car. My best was a 161 but my clutch was slipping bad, it also was sticking to the floor.

Many fewer people running from roll this year than last. Anyone see who ran highest NA run?

 

[Yaj Yak]

i'd guess a vette, probably that c5 that was just nasty, or if i kept guessing, my next guess would be a c6 z06... they always run well it seems.

 

[Eagle]

That vengeance racing red c5. So hot. Got a picture of the engine bay:

770WHP NA.

 

[wildabeast]

^oof, thats nasty for being n/a

 

[SinisterSHO]

What was it, 470 some inches?

Believe it was an 474 LSx motor.

 

[blakbearddelite]

I thought I remember a 17X mph pass from that vette.

What is done to your car? Thanks for the pic! Shit looks hot!

Your car looks and sounds sick! I was the passenger in C5Z06SpeedJons Vette. I actually have a little vid of you and the black Vette running on the way up there!

Thanks, I would love to see the vid if you ever end up uploading it.

You can't see much in the vid but you can hear your cars screaming! I'll upload it tomorrow.
