Went last Friday again and my wife managed to hit 14.1 twice, last run we both screwed up, too much hurry up and wait.
I lowered the tire pressures on both cars and it didn't seem like it made a difference, but it could have been masking the track getting worse. They need to take a broom to the track since there was so many rocks on it. DA was 2200+, so she ran a 13.7 @ 103. She wants the true timeslip though. I'm wondering if the BBK intake is hurting her car, on the Mustang V6 fast list nobody else uses a BBK except for her. Also, weight for the cars: 2010 Camaro 1LT with Synergy Green Edition Package, full tank of gas, subwoofer box, and driver = 4065 2012 Mustang Premium Coupe with Pony Pack, full tank of gas and driver = 3730 |

Put the stock intake back on, friend put his back on his 5.0 liter and he pulls my camaro now. Used to be dead even.

The intake isnt hurting her. You guys 60's are way too high. Im not sure if it's a DA issue or traction, but she needs to be punching out consistent 2.0's and you need to be down at a 1.9 or 1.8.
Being that the DA is 2200, I can see the corrected times as being about normal, although at this point, I think your wife is as modded as I am. Corrected down I am about a 13.1 so there is something more to the story

Best bet is to: 1) try testing stock vs the BBK at the track... 2) ICE down the BBK between runs! On my vert, i only have the MPT tune, 3.55s and axle back... running a set of Michelin Pilot Sport AS3 all seasons i consistently pulled a 2.1x 60' running a couple 13.58 @ 102 MPH and a bunch of 13.6s... This was basically just leaving off idle. DA was around 330'.

I'm not bringing my engine RPM's up high enough I think. I've been practicing launching on a "private" road and I can launch at 1500 RPM's and not spin too much so I'm going to try that next time. Quote:
I'm wondering if the BBK intake is sucking in the hot engine air from the bay, all other intakes use the snorkel, BBK doesn't. |

So you are saying that she cant even brake stand to 1500rpm without the tires getting loose? Im having a hard time understanding because I can hold and launch at about 2000rpm with the auto transmission. SHe has all her nannies disabled?

Next time at the track I will try to put the camera on my car looking at hers, might be able to show what is happening. I know the water box is unavoidable and trucks drive their mud tires straight through it. Would be nice if we could get drag radials, but I want both of us to have them on at the same time. |

I also saw your post about CFM's 10 second turbo Mustang 3.7. I think they did the same with a Procharger. Great guys at CFM, bought the Mustang drive shaft from them. I am curious if they will try to get into the 9's. |

Safety is certainly paramount. But the advancetrac being on is destroying her time. It cuts power when it detects wheel spin. But, please continue to exercise caution. FYI, i had about 50 passes on the stock pirelli's and never had an issue with the advancetrac off.

Next time we go I will tell her to turn traction control off, let her take it easy the first few times so she can get used to it. Might be the end of May though when they have their Sunday TnT, that way we can get a good amount of runs in.
I went by myself Friday since my wife was too tired after working, she has been busy doing some harvesting of cancer cells and gene therapy stuff. She works in BioTechnology so I don't know, I deal with computers. The 3rd run was against a 2013/2014 Mustang 5.0 with at least a tuner. Might be able to see how the track is with his run. My 60' time was awesome during that run, I should turn pro with it. I am car #829 The track officials were also pissed, they made an announcement that if you are running 13.99 or faster you will have a helmet, do not race and hope nobody notices. They also told people to stop dragging mud and rocks onto the track, a kid put mud all over one lane and they had to blow it off. I will have to buy both of us helmets now. |
