Re: MAPerformance goes 10.19 @ 146mph today at the Rock!
A. Nothing Broke
B. It went quick
We are happy.
With another pass I think we would have done a 9.9999999999999@148.
Each pass we gained over 2 tenths and 2mph. There was no sign of knock so I think it would have done a 9 given another pass and dropping the tire pressure a little more. They were at 21psi on the last pass.
There is me bench racing. We'll wait until the 8th to run our 9. Hopefully not a high 9 either.
Shane, get your car done and run it on the 8th!

I don't care about my car. I can't compete and I don't usually have a lot of motivation after working all day.

Haha, you two are getting too old!
And both of you can more than compete. That is the fun of it!

My car weighs about 4500lbs with me in it and breaks 4th gear at part throttle, it's a lost cause. I don't know why I even got rid of 67, I should have just turned the boost up.
I gotta get my damn daily driver Talon running again, fix the rearend on the Suburban, work on the SC300 and then maybe work on my car.
I also don't have Kevin Johnson around anymore to help me with my own cars and get me movitated to do shit.

1 of 3 reasons.
1)It hooks better, doubtful
2)Its better for the video filmed from the left side of the track.
3)The right one says LSE Performance on the top of the timeslip.
What do you guys plan on running for tires next time out?

I don't think it was actually contemplated lol it just ended up that way. As far as the tires go we have two options, stick with the wheels we have and run some DR's or switch out the wheels, add coilovers and wheel spacers, and run some Bias Ply Hoosier QTP's...

Re: MAPerformance goes 10.19 @ 146mph today at the Rock!
Ahh, the perils of long days, I wanted nothing more than to go home, watch tv, maybe shower and sleep when I was at the moving company, that was hard work, I know what a long day will do to a brotha.
But yeah, video plz.

Re: MAPerformance goes 10.19 @ 146mph today at the Rock!
Nice video. Those were some fast cars he was up against, I think the first one went 8s. I was expecting to see him against some Honda running 14s.
Was the car on a 2 step? It sounded to me like he was just free reving and slipping the clutch.

He wanted to free rev it as he thought he could make boost and get out of the hole without the two step/anti-lag. Plus any more power off the line would have overpowered those tires even more. The game plan is to utilize the antilag on the launch and in between shifts once we have some better tires on there.
