MAPerformance steps into the 9's @ 148mph

Yeah, that mph is flying. There's a lot more in it with some practice, suspension tuning and better tires.

This is with the new Hoosier QTP Radials on it, but we couldn't even use them to their full capabilites, as you can tell by the 60' time, as the axle would instantly snap! We are going with some Driveshaft Shop axles and hopefully that will take care of this problem. I can't wait to see what fails next :rolleyes:

Congrats! It's probably only a good 60' away from a mid 9. 8s aren't totally out of the question, even though it is extremely hard to get times down at that level. But isn't that Raptor's old super light chassis with Chris's 71mm turbo and nitrous?

[Goat Blower]

How much NAWZZZZZZZZz?

[v8klla]

It is Raptor's old car, but with Kyle in it it still weighs 2940 lbs per the track scale yesterday.

Yes we are using the PT71GTQ turbo and a 75 shot of nitrous. The downside is we were making boost adjustments throughout the day so we don't really know how much boost we were running, somewhere over 40 psi. We also don't currently have a means to log A/F besides the dyno and we didn't tune the nitrous on the dyno in fear of blowing the motor up lol. All we know if that when the nitrous was on we retarded timing 3 degrees and A/F went way rich just to be on the safe side.

The car has a lot more in it, we just need some more time and some reliable axles!

Pretty sure it's Mike's old drilled and perforated chasis!

*edit: woops chris beat me to it.

[Goat Blower]

So basically 800 whp? Geez.

[dumb_ricer]

Yeah, I don't understand. The car is still relatively heavy, even with all the weight reduction. 2700lb's with a quarter tank of gas.

Weight is going to have to come down at some point to run an 8.

[Shane@DBPerformance]

Well, I would take 2700lbs over 3200lbs. :)

I don't know if you can take any more out. Mike gutted that like a fish. lol

I'm glad you guys liked Tri-State. I love that track for drag racing. They really don't care what is out there racing, they will prep a track to make sure people keep coming back.
