Funny because as I recall the fastest IPF has ran was 13.0x and the fastest V6owner ran was 13.1x. So if 100 more hp and 70 more tq only means faster by .1 then I'm sorry but I've just got to

The IPF car did its deed with all seats intact and without DR's. The IPF kit costs less and doesn't need a meth kit, DR's and the seats and spare tires removed to get to the low 13's. You spent a lot of money to go 2 tenths slower. I'm sure there are plenty who find plenty of comedy in that. I won't go there as I only feel really bad for you my friend.

Answer me this. The same ipf car that ran 13.0x on stock wheels but at nationals with better tires it ran 13.2x. Can you explain that my good sir?

And who cares if I take out my seats? Lol it's not even all that much weight added up

Dyno #'s dont win races. They only impress the people that know nothing about racing. Bring that IPF car down here to our weather, I bet it cant repeat it's one glory run.

You do know that the stock Rx pulley doesn't need a meth kit right? I mean as much time as you spend in the FI section I thought you would have known that, silly me for assuming that.

Who has the #1 spot on the FI V6 fast list? Could you check that out for me because maybe I'm reading that incorrectly. My point is all of the IPF OWNERS have not run that impressive of times. Come to think of it, NO IPF owners have posted to get on the bored in the V6 fast list. Strange isn't it...

I have been waiting to post these as the magazine article has not been released, but I have seen the article and no mention of actual times were used, so.....

Here is my time slip, IPF kit, stock pulley, stock exhaust and all.....Other car was a SS Camaro with exhaust and who knows, My 60 ft time sucks, will be getting suspension mods soon to get traction....This thing rocks on the LFX car, as many have ridden can attest too.

My clutch is a weak link, it either blows the tires or spins the clutch, it will not hold the power well. Neeing an am clutch setup to get the full benefit too. more $$$$

Doesnt your kit have more upgrades than the ÍPF kit as far as a bigger belt, etc...? Also you had upgraded tires when the IPF car went stock with the kit @ 13.0

I dont know how much the backseats weigh but, I want to see your time with backseats & stock wheels.

Not to mention tuning is set up for a certain temperature and DA, Arizona compared to where Nationals was? .2 difference, still not bad at all.

Im not one to talk about times because, as a college student I dont have time to get out to the track.... but

Baylor your one to talk when no other RX owner has posted times on the v6 fast list as well including yourself.

V6owner's hp and tq isnt even on the board as well.

Everyone is talking about how IPF cant run a 13.0 again? Lol v6owner.. can you run a 13.1 again or beat 13.0?


Way to much competition to the point where its not even friendly anymore.

Love too, but its not in my cards.. Work and School full time. Finishing up a degree. Clutch is needed, will not hold many more launches like that. Track prep has to be perfect and I can as easily run a 14 as a 12. Traction is your worst enemy so far, When it hooks and the clutch holds power, hold on. It took many runs to get to here, and until I am willing to sink more money, this will have to suffice, I know I can do it, I have nothing to prove to anyone but myself. I would love to be in the 11's, but the 12's is where I want to be. Any more and a modded V8 would be where I would spend my money. Its fast, fun and I have something that few have. I love the IPF kit, it runs great and strong.
