MAPerformance FDSM 8.41 @ 161.69mph
We finally made a full pass at just 40psi on Saturday at Brainerd International Raceway. We will have to wait until next season to see what we can do with 50+ psi as our roll cage certification is only good to 8.50 and we were promptly kicked out of the event :( 60' 1.285 330' 3.510 1/8 5.387 MPH 130.57 1000 7.025 1/4 8.416 MPH 161.69 According to dsmtimes.org (I'm sure this list is a bit outdated / incomplete) we are now the 8th quickest 4g63 powered vehicle ever :) Did I mention that we drove it home from the track over 130 miles? Street car FTW ;) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YIlhW46Hb0&hd=1 We would like to thank the following sponsors for their contributions to this ongoing project: http://www.activeradiator.com/images...rmanceLogo.gif Bullseye Power http://www.fuelinjectorclinic.com/pics/logo.gif Jay Racing http://www.maperformance.com/gallery...kigglylogo.jpg Magnus Motorsports Meanstreet Performance Motor by Gosh (Machine Work) Straight Line Specialties |

Heard about that. I looked, but wasn't able to find your car at the track. Good job.

Re: MAPerformance FDSM 8.41 @ 161.69mph

Re: MAPerformance FDSM 8.41 @ 161.69mph
We just drove the FDSM 130+ miles from Brainerd back to the shop. A nice little finale to our weekend and proof that the FDSM really is a streetable car :-)

Re: MAPerformance FDSM 8.41 @ 161.69mph
Good job. Rau's car could probably make it back to the cities.... Not a great idea but would be better than a walk if all other options failed.

From what I remember your car didn't have headlights until before the "fake" video was released. I am saying it probably could make the drive if needed.
Great job with the car. Full boost? |
Re: MAPerformance FDSM 8.41 @ 161.69mph
I cant believe you guys drove that home! I wouldnt even trust my Daily driver to make it up here and back :)
|
Re: MAPerformance FDSM 8.41 @ 161.69mph
These passes were done on 40psi, so there is still more in it but it looks like we might have to wait for next season :( We drove it home to make a few of the haters eat their words ;)
|
Re: MAPerformance FDSM 8.41 @ 161.69mph
Proof of driving it all the way home or it didn't happen. haha
|
Re: MAPerformance FDSM 8.41 @ 161.69mph
Oh there is video proof lol, the problem is the fact that its labor day and my video editing guy is likely still passed out ;)
|
Re: MAPerformance FDSM 8.41 @ 161.69mph
Or I can tell you that I know a guy that was up there racing their '70 chevelle ss454 convertible and on his way back he was passed by a white evo with green wheels followed by a "white rx7 that was just up there going 8's."
Pretty awesome if you ask me. 8.41 second car driving home like it was an afterthought. |
Re: MAPerformance FDSM 8.41 @ 161.69mph
Haha awesome :)
|
Re: MAPerformance FDSM 8.41 @ 161.69mph
saw you and Brent on Saturday, final round of qualifiers. you made the 8.41 pass on Sunday i assume? if it hadn't been $20/day i probably would have gone on Sunday as well. i got vid of both of you on Saturday so i was happy!
|
Re: MAPerformance FDSM 8.41 @ 161.69mph
Both passes we made were on Saturday and that got us kicked out so we couldn't run on Sunday :(
|
Re: MAPerformance FDSM 8.41 @ 161.69mph
i came on the right day then! too bad i missed THE pass, but it was fun to be able to see the progress you guys made in action. i'm sorry to hear that they axed ya.

Re: MAPerformance FDSM 8.41 @ 161.69mph
Video added to the first post. There will be another video with more of the drive home, but its currently 28 minutes long and pretty uneventful so some more editing is going to be needed lol.

I think you need to update this ^^^^^
