Waiting for tech right now. I wasnt nervous last time i was here but now that im on the spot, i gotta run a 12. Even if i blow it up in the process

 

[Sho Amo]

Well I want to scream and shout but I cant because im typing. All I can really say is FU(k YESSSSSSS

Oh, and it has more in it too.

Roughly ~13psi conservatively tuned, drag radials at 15psi, and no passenger or rear seat.




Its going to go faster too. I guarantee it.

Vids or ban.

Yep.

Remember that, in today's $$$, my new '89 SHO cost the same as a new one........

 

[Sho Amo]

And ill be damned, you called the time within a 100th of a second. I think next time ill leave the interior in. I didnt really take out much so I dont think it was worth it.

I wanted to blow it up so I had a reason to go forged. I dont think I did, but ill do a compression test next sunday to see whats up. After that I need to get that quaifed trans from justin and fix my parking brake so I can get those tires warmed up much better. This car has a record setting run in it pretty much how it sits.

 

[St Louis SHO]

Quaife aint gonna help ET or heating up tires.


Just sayin.

Great run fer shizzle, I'm proud, and happy for ya.

 

[lowc]

Sho Amo nice run, we want a vid of when you do blow it up.

 

[Sho Amo]

Second time that set of tires has been in the 12s. Thanks James

Edit: heres a video of my last run. Its the only one ive got and it was a 13.5@111, for some reason misfiring through second.

 

[whiteguy3]

The car has more no doubt! Getting this thing into the 12's has been fun. I think with the same boost we could eek out a 12.5. And I do believe a quaife would help in the 60ft department. It was one wheel burn out all day. A 2.0 60ft alone would net 2 tenths.

I think the misfire was a coil that popped out and missed for second. This will be corrected. The coils have been extremely reliable.

 

[St Louis SHO]

The 60ft explains the MPH. I wanna see you flicker the bottom bulb (shallow stage) and run that ***** for all its worth. I see a 12.6x in it for sure.

 

[Sho Amo]

ill try that next time. might be going back to the track soon.
