it wasn't in the 1/4 it is a 1000 ft track ya in the quater that would b crappy.

 

Good 'Ol Centerville! yep guys its a 1000' track, not a full 1/4. 12.6 is pretty respectable for a full size truck with just some bolt ons. I had a '89 GT that I was taking out there last year and I had done quite a bit to it and it was only running mid 11's seems like my speed was around the low 90's. Nice run and nice kill. Man I miss going out there on Saturday nights! actually I really miss my stang!

 

finally someo one understands

 

Track restrictions why they couldnt add the last 320ft

 

good question..

 

1/4mi - 1320ft
1/5.28mi - 1000ft
1/8mi - 660ft

Looking at the distances i wouldnt say thats bad at all, seems like pretty high trap speed for a truck

 

looking to get in the looow 12's before im done

 

keep going the way your going and you'll be therer real soon

 

I think when the place started out it was actually a small private landing strip that they started racing on. The reason its not full 1/4 is because they dont have enough shutdown area for the faster vehicles, in fact I dont know what the time cutoff is but I think the really fast cars (rails) only run 1/8th. I dont think there is enough property to extend the track, I know at the end of the shut down area there is a sand pit, then just off the back side of it is a fence which I assume is a property line. There are no 1/4 mile strips around our area, in fact I think the closest one is over in Oklahoma.

 

BTW, 12.6 1000' @ 80mph should be somewhere in the 15.1-15.2 1/4, depending on how much more speed he would gain. If he held 80 it figures out to still be a 15.3. I'd say thats not bad, wont take much to get that thing down in the 14's, which to me isnt bad for a full size truck with bolt ons.

 

How much bigger are the outside diameter of your 20" tires over the stockers?? if they are much taller you might could pick up a tenth or so if you ran them on the rear, that is if they would hook up.

What kind of 60ft time did you get?

 

rja.. not sure on the 60 ft my slips are at home but ill check. I am more than likely going to get the pulley kit from troyer..suppose to get me 14-15 more hp with the tune i have. ill get back to yall on the 60 ft. times and the rim size thanks.

 

i wonder if we fold in our mirrors our times would go down?

I may be going to the track on the 29th for a TNT, thats if i can get my truck back w/ updated engine calibration.
