13.54@101 with some DR's and cool weather!!

Its amazing what some drag radials and some cooler weather will do for track times. My previous best was 14.2 @97 and with no other mods but drag radials and about a 20 degree drop in temp from the last time I ran. So for all the magnacharger haters out there you can eat this since this was done in a SCREW and with only 8 psi!! A 1.98 60ft is respectable for a 6000lb truck but I still want to try and do better. Heres a timeslip and video-im still trying to teach my wife how to videotape





I am racing my bros lightning in the vid but he spins off the line and gives up

Damn bro, good job! When are we putting the Magnacharger on my truck?

PS: I've got someone that does want a supercharger for a GMC1500 5.3, so shoot me an email or PM.

How do you plan on improving your 60'?

I would need to know a couple variables :

1. What PSI are you running in your DR's?
2. Which DR's (MT, BFG, Nitto...)
3. What RPM are you launching at?
4. What suspension mods do you have (if any)?

BTW, that's a VERY incredible time for a 5000+lb brick with nothing more than a S/C (unless I missed something). Congratulations indeed!!!!!!!!!

Just FYI, your MPH and ET are pretty even, meaning there really isn't a whole lot more to be gained. Of course any 10th reduction in 60ft is worth ~ 2 10ths reduction in ET.

Once more, AWESOME JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that is amazing...and what really puts it into perspective, is that your E/T was about .5 seconds faster than a stock Mustang.

I cannot imagine having a truck that was on par performance wise as my car. just sick

can you list up all your mods?

How well did those tires do?

I've been looking on Ebay for a cheap set myself.

performance mods are: 8psi magnacharger, Pacesetter LT's and dual 2.5in magnaflow, custom VMP dynotune, 4.10's, 275/50-17 M&H drag radials.

Suspension is just a Belltech 2/4 with no traction bars and stock shocks.

Tranny is stock except for a little firmer shifts from the tune. I was launching off idle and not really brake torquing it and the tires did very well at 25 psi which was good bc I did not want to go lower and risk the *** end of the truck swaying at 100mph+. Only way I can see squeezing a little more out of it is with launch technique but it will be tough.

Change your sig, you run mid 13's now! Congrats, that's quite a feat. Just curious, what do stock wrx's run? I was in one yesterday, quick little buggers.

How do you like the 4.10 gears? I was considering getting them when I get my s/c but I do ALOT of highway driving.

Hey I meant to tell you that you can get a 10% discount if you are a member of modularfords.com or a few other forums.
