Current fast time and mods below... Will hopefully have 3.27 geared diff, and FTI billet 3600 stall converter installed before the next race.
Curious why August will be your last run? What are the temps around there? I understand if you can't due to whatever reasons, but wouldn't it be best to get your last runs in a month or two when its cooler out?

Well it may not be the last... Every once in a while they do this thing called Midnight Mayhem, and run the track from 10pm to 2am, and it's about the best shot for decent cool air this late in the season. This next one is Aug 30. Seemed like a good chance to get some good air.

Looks like there is still a couple races in sept, and a couple in oct before the track closes down.

HEY! SCREW YOU!

Honestly I'm in the V6 FI and bolt on section more than the ZL1 section. However this thread I've been bad about..

The OP with times should be up-to-date now.

BTW everyone, if you haven't noticed rtcat600man now has control of the list. Since I no longer have my V6 I'm checking this section less and less. Since he has been doing a great job keeping track of the 1/8th mile fast list it made since to hand control over to him.

Any new boosted cars I've been missing out on? Hows sycraft's ride doing with the new clutch?
I took my car to Tail of the Dragon back on Aug 4th, so I've kinda abandoned 1/4mi activities in place of other handling and braking (and possibly clutch :/ ) upgrades...Lets just say there was some fade on all sides (brakes, clutch) while I was up there. The car is also just sitting now until I do some major fluid swaps.

MACE Stage 4 Ported Intake Manifold
ARH Headers 1-3/4th
ARK DT-S
BMR Trailing Arms
BMR Subframe Inserts
Stock 245/50-R19 Pirelli All-season tires with 32k miles on them.

I had just started the car up for the first time at noon and raced it that night. DA was 2500+ during the runs. Here is a video of the 4 runs I made, along with the DA:



Best timeslip (Right lane):
nice dude I've seen one of your vids on youtube with your wife , i believe i even asked you a few questions there ^.^ you have a nice car . What made you decide on a supercharger instead of a turbo? because from what i've heard turbo's should be a better option for the v6.

Are these times at showroom weight or is everything including the kitchen sink been taken out? When i see these times for STOCK and see some with mods and FI only slightly quicker i have to wonder how real the times are or if weight reduction was done.

I can guarantee that the one on the top of the bone stock list was just that bone stock and no weight reduction what so ever. I personally know the owner and was at the track the day he ran that time.

As for time difference and slightly quicker, thing of it this way, He ran a 14.247 with 312 hp. I ran a best of 13.664 with all my bolt ons. This is a 0.583 improvement. I would say that is pretty damn good for the bolts on that I have.

I'd guess a lot of it is weather, location, and of course, driver ability?

I can drive 4 hrs to the track up north and pick up .2 just from the elevation change and good air.

Heck, you picked up that much just from the license plate braket.

You need to remember location too. Those guys up north run NEGATIVE DA sometimes! I'm happy when it was below 1,000 here lol.

I doubt anyone would lie and leave something out to be on a list that doesn't really mean anything to be honest. I think DA and of course drive ability have a lot to do with it.
