yeah i was just trying to have a little fun at musashi's expense...

Bah, you have an automatic. You can make Luos look stupid for the amount of money he put into his car. Buy some gears, CAI, Long Tube Headers, a cam, and a 3000+ stall converter w/ drag radials, and i'll guarantee you make Luos time look bad. That's why I hate automatic cars. It's soo easy, and the drivers claim it's their skill

[Mr. Luos]

Unless he starts looking at low 11's...he won't make me look bad.

We all know what kind of disadvantage I have here in Denver. Freaking density altitude for that 12.3 pass was 8500.
Adjust that to a DA of zero and I run 10.7 at 130.
If you would like, I can link you to the calculator and give you the weather conditions.

Get this....Even if I get a perfect DA here (5800) instead of the 8500, I correct to an 11.8 at 119.

Yeah we have a track called Palmdale where I am at. It's at 2700ft. elevation, but has a Density Altitude typically in the 5-6K feet density altitude (It's hot as F, as it is in the desert ~ 110 degrees outside, much hotter on the track). I remember going there w/ my former Z28 and only running a 14.0 sec. 1/4 mile at 102mph. People laughed their heads off at my times, but I saw mustangs barely breaking into high 14's there (Cobras too). Most people don't know that altitude affects cars, so I gave up on arguing with them. That's why I go to sea level tracks. No reason to go to a track and run crappy times that everyone will make fun of, even if you are smoking Vipers at that same track. Go figure.

Yeah high DA sucks ass. I ran a best of 11.96 @118mph with my fist cam no heads stock cubes. BUT it was a just little over sea level. I think my car will be sold tomorrow though and a little FRC vette will be on the horizon. 490rwhp in a 3000lb race weight car....

nice......cant wait till I start smoking Force inducted v8s......but yeah those kenneth bell cobras can be monsters.....Ive seen one at the track not a KB cobra but a whipple running like mid 11s getting sideways in every gear....

its very hard to cut anything lower than 2.0 60ft on street tires.....unless AWD....

[Right_LiRrr]

everyone kisses ur ass on these forums....


....this is why =P

very nice

[79Bandit]

Got a new personal best...12.324 at 115.55.
Weather conditions were HORRIBLE. DA was around 8500.
Finally got her outta the hole decent today though. 1.868 short time.
On the Nitto's, not the M/T's.

Me either, only saw two at Woodward, and only one was cruising. I did however smoke a WS6 At a light I got some sarcastic comments about my truck, something to the effect of "Oooh, let's see what you can do supercharged Dakota boy". He got a good view of my tailgate, for a few seconds at least, after that it was too far away for him to see M&H's ftw

Congrats on the new best, that's smokin' for your elevation.

I saw this thread title, and who started it, and immediately turned up the speakers on my computer anticipating another cool vid!

Dashboard mount dude - shit I want to be able to flick a switch and see live streaming video of you driving around... I'll hack into onstar - lol - imagine driving around then hearing someone over the speaker go, "oh, oh - dude, Cobra 5 cars ahead to your right!!"
