RWD car that traps 140mph in 1/4 mile won't do 170mph on unprepared 1/2 mile airport runway

What will it do then???

Yeah I think it would have had some low 160 passes in it, I ordered a griptec blower pulley today, I didn’t even realize the belt was slipping, I may throw a new belt on it later today

Trow a new belt on it then you need to make few Dragy test hits LOL. It's crazy how accurate the Dragy was compering to the slip I got from the runway . This was my first pass of the day . Slip shows 155.2mph mph , Dragy showed 155.8mph

I was spinning the tires for about an 1/8th mile on my passes, the air strip surface is pretty bad for rwd cars, spinning and peddling gets me mid 130’s in the 1/4 mile so I’m guessing I’d have maybe at best got a some low to mid 160’s out of it

Was the sun out yesterday? I wonder if the concrete was hotter if you'd hook better?

I believe UWISHU1 went like 160ish with his car and hes down about 150 hp from you. If you could hook up I still think 165-170 is the number...

In the past they were doing rolling starts where the start line was the beginning of the 1/2 mile so they were actually going farther than a 1/2 mile, of it was like that I’m sure I could get into the 170’s, there was a local to me guy with a black ford ranger on his 1000whp tune up he went 171, he ended up doing 178 turned up a bit more

But no the sun was not out, there were some big big burnouts yesterday

 

[Jeffs FRC]

Oh they dont do the rolling start anymore? I didn't know that.

Isnt the general rule of thumb to add what you gain from the 1/8 to the 1/4 and that would be about what you would do in the 1/2

They do a rolling start if you want but you start rolling at the beginning of the 1/2 mile so it’s shorter than in years past, they used to start rolling a couple hundred feet behind the 1/2 mile start

Yeah

Car sounds vicious at least.

NFZ is the true half mile event now , just like all the other 1/2 mile events . It used to be 1/2 mile from the second set of cons , they change it this year . its around 5mph slower then the previous NFZ events . My GTR run 165-167mph from a dig last year at NFZ , it runs 160-161mph at true 1/2

Just like Brett said it . RWD cars are limited by traction on that surface . car that traps 140mph with 1.5 60's on prepped surface won't be nowhere near close to 140mph on dusty concrete airport surface with probably around 2.0 + 60'

 

[Jeffs FRC]

Brett did you get in touch with Rob yet?

Brett did you get in touch with Rob yet?

I talked to him Saturday he said he sent me a revision but I never got it, I have a year to get it figured out lol

 

[1quick]

I threw a new belt on it today god damn it’s tight, I had to pry the belt on with a screwdriver, the old belt had probably stretched an inch, I should be getting the griptec pulley this week also maybe be hitting gld soon

 

[HellPIG]

I'm still "on target" for thursday.

I may be in I would like to get the new pulley on before the track again

 

[1quick]

I got a tune with no limiter today, so in a year I can test it out lol

 

[95SC]

Wait a year to check if it goes above 155mph , come on LOL . I'm sure you know where that was

 

[Mook]

we need more posts like that one.

bout 3 miles from my house lol

I will agree, I was lucky to ride in on the 155 pass. I sent a video to your messenger Brett.

Freight train is an understatement!! Hope that new setup (belt, griptech, tune) works out well for you!!
