nice run man..good job on the 12 second pass

last night was a bad night for my car....

1st run 10.816@??? didnt show the MPH
2nd run car started breaking up in 3rd and the car shut down
3rd run car started breaking up and for some reason the car was real slow then picked back up
4th run had peter drive it to see what's going on....blew the radiator hose off and all the water spilled on the track.. sorry guys :(

Conclusion... Rim is spinning inside the slicks...and tach signal is bad... still have to find out why the rpm is dropping real low and bogging when we're launching... best run for the night


Peter's car... what can i say, its a consistant ass car.. 10.2 to 10.3 all night with 145-150mph traps all night.. next time we'll bring VHT and spray the slicks LOL since commerce dont do that for Friday Nights

yeah wassup man.. sorry about your mishap! how did you get your car home? I heard your MPH was 104MPH? thats awesome... that is what i was trapping to run 12's. what's ur 60ft? If you can get atleast a 1.8 60ft and a 8.2x@85ish mph... 12's for sure LOL..

Did you run nitrous? How did you guys end up getting your car home? Good luck next time! Really fast hatch bro!

Let me tell you how to preload:

Let go of the clutch to its highest point possible without the car moving forward. Bring the rpm to desired launch point. that is how you prevent axle breakage.

I stage at 7000-7300rpm with autozone axles and 25" slicks.. peter launches at 7000-7300rpm with 26" slicks with OEM axles....

give it a try

Will this kill the clutch faster?

I trapped at 100 mph not 104{i wish} ..If i launch at 6 k i get 1.8 60' like clockwork . Thats how i was getting the 13.4's . I was running all motor ..I tried 7 k launch and thats when i snapped the axel. I will try the preloading next time...

Well im off to try to get a axel... Thanks for the help..Oh we got it home with a trailor a friend had. I had to wait on him for 2 hours but i was thankfull he was able to do it. I need a tow dolly like you had...

Oh the reason i think it broke was i just got omni power coilvers. Well i left the car kinda low{1 finger gap} and was to lazy to put it back up......The were slanted a good bit..It sheared off the stub at the end of the axel ...The joint was ok..

I had my best run at 13.1 @ 103mph in my bolt on sr'd s14, even though I had to wait forever them to fix the track

good runs for the isp cars, they never stop amazing me
